WRESTLING BABYLON: Piledriving Tales of Drugs, Sex, Death, and Scandal is reviewed in a new post at Forbes.com by Michael Maiello headlined “Ring of Death.”
“There’s something dark about a business that should be full of light,” Maiello writes. Author Irvin Muchnick “reveals a lot of tragedy that’s gone unnoticed in the marginalized but big-money world of professional wrestling.” For the full text, see http://www.forbes.com/opinions/2007/06/28/book-review-wrestling-oped-cz_mm_0628wrestling.html.
Muchnick was interviewed today by Fox News for a news report that is scheduled to be aired first at around 5:30 p.m. Eastern time today (Thursday, June 28).
This morning Muchnick was interviewed by Debbie Monterrey and Doug McElvein on KMOX Radio in St. Louis. The segment of “Total Information AM” can be heard at http://muchnick.net/KMOX_62807.mp3. (In the near future, when the media frenzy over Chris Benoit subsides, the WRESTLING BABYLON website, http://wrestlingbabylon.com, will be reorganized with all links to recent media appearances.)
