Gaining notoriety during the height of the movement against the war in Vietnam, the underground magazine was a journalistic arm of the New Left. Written by Peter Richardson, the \u201cA Bomb in Every Issue,\u201d covers Ramparts\u2019 inception as a Catholic quarterly in 1962 to its transformation into a radical voice of the late 60\u2019s. By then, contributors included Noam Chomsky, Angela Davis and Susan Sontag. Ramparts also ruffled journalistic feathers by publishing the diaries of Ernesto \u201cChe\u201d Guevara. In the book, Richardson conveys the importance of the San Francisco Bay Area based underground magazine as it helped further the journalistic prowess of writers such as Robert Scheer and Warren Hinckle. Ramparts\u2019 story on the use of napalm in Vietnam is said to have influenced the decision of Martin Luther King Jr. to speak out against the war. Before folding in 1975, the magazine garnered the George Polk award for its muckraking work. Douglas Brinkley has said of Richardson\u2019s work in \u201cA Bomb in Every Issue,\u201d that it is \u201can excellent history that shouldn\u2019t be ignored.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><em>GUEST: Peter Richardson, author of &#8220;A Bomb in Every Issue: How the Short, Unruly Life of Ramparts Magazine Changed America&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>| the entire program \u201cA Bomb in Every Issue: How the Short, Unruly Life of Ramparts Magazine Changed America&#8221;\u201d is the provocative title of a new book that follows the history of the even more provocative Ramparts magazine.
