While sportswriters rushed into Major League Baseball locker rooms to talk with players, MLB Commissioner Bowie Kuhn barred the lone woman from entering along with them. That reporter, twenty-six-year-old Sports Illustrated reporter Melissa Ludtke, charged Kuhn with gender discrimination, and after the lawyers argued Ludtke v. Kuhn in federal court, she won. Her 1978 groundbreaking case affirmed her equal rights, and the judge's order opened the doors for several generations of women to be hired in sports media.

A partire dagli episodi della sua vita famigliare, personale e professionale e con lo sguardo attento ai cambiamenti che stano stravolgendo la nostra immagine del mondo, Sallusti mostra in questo libro il punto di vista eretico di un liberal-conservatore abituato a sentirsi minoranza - spesso irrisa - nei salotti buoni della cultura dominante, e tuttavia consapevole di essere in sintonia con la maggioranza delle persone in Europa e in Occidente, come le elezioni si incaricano invariabilmente di dimostrare.

Se Pansa è stato un giornalista stimato per la sua onestà, un giornalista ‘democratico e di sinistra’, se i suoi scritti sulla Resistenza gli hanno procurato persino il riconoscimento di Grande Ufficiale della Repubblica da parte del presidente Ciampi, come è possibile che, per aver completato la verità sul ‘biennio fatale 1943-45’, si sia trasformato in un falsario o, per i suoi peggiori detrattori, nientemeno che in un fascista?”

The Hell’s Angels Letters: Hunter S. Thompson, Margaret Harrell and the Making of an American Classic is an important revelation in the legacy of Thompson, with letters that survived precarious shipping and travel over decades, cloaked away from the public. “If Hell’s Angels hadn’t happened I never would have been able to write Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas or anything else . . . I felt like I got through a door just as it was closing,” Hunter told Paris Review.

În volumul de față, după 16 ani de la prima autobiografie, Live, Delia Budeanu, prezentatoare timp de 28 de ani la Televiziunea Română (1970–1998), izbutește în mod alchimic să preschimbe uneltele malefice ale cenzurii de altădată în instrumente lăuntrice benefice ale controlului de sine, ale rigorii estetice și ale detașării de imediatul trăirilor brute. Această ținere în frâu a visceralului îi conferă Deliei Budeanu o paradoxală eliberare din captivitatea confesiunilor proprii, care, transfigurate, devin la rândul lor rampe de lansare în spiritualitate.
