PLEASE CALL Temple's Office of News and Media Relations at (215) 204-7476 or contact me directly. Most frequent interview requests are for my expertise in political persuasion: e.g. Egyptian liberation movement, presidential campaign speeches and debates, presidential rhetoric, news media framings of post-9/11 issues, political advertising, social movements, and social protest. Other recent topics have included the art of speechmaking, university grade inflation, and Philadelphia as a college town. I am available for television and radio as an interviewee, discussion panelist, debater, or guest talk show host.
