This is What the Internet is For

I saw in the New York Times today that some egghead has received a grant to prepare a publicly accessible archive of the oral histories compiled by Studs Terkel during his writing career.

Imagine being able to listen to the voices Terkel transcribed and put together in books like Working, Hard Times, The Good War, etc.

I'm pretty sure some asshole Congressman will complain at some point about spending the taxpayers' money on venerating the life's work of Terkel and his left-leaning, Commie-loving bullshit.

That's what they always want to say about the National Endowment for the Humanities, and that's a significant part of what makes them assholes.
