John Ziegler, who was arrested Thursday while trying to cover a journalism awards ceremony, will appear on

BlogTalkRadio's Unusable Signal tonight to discuss his arrest.

We'll discuss the legal implications of the arrest, and find out why John thinks Katie Couric didn't deserve the award. From Ziegler's press release:

USC is giving Couric the award for "Impact on the 2008 Election," specifically for her "extraordinary, persistent and detailed multi-part interviews with Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin."

Ziegler noted, "This award is absurd on its face. Obviously Couric is being rewarded for the perceived result of the interview and not any alleged journalism involved in it. My documentary. Media Malpractice: How Obama Got Elected and Palin Was Targeted proves that, if anything, Couric should have been condemned, not honored for what happened there."

We'll also have a panel discussion of the week's events, including the Tax Day Tea Parties, CNN's unhinged reporter, Janeane Garofalo's rant, the President's current trip, and much more, with The Daily Beast's Max Blumenthal, Matt Lewis, Caleb Howe, Tommy Christopher, and your host, Cube.

The show airs live 11 PM to 1 AM. You can listen here, or go to the Unusable Signal show page and join in the discussion with the chat feature.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
