In part, "Some of the best writing on the Washington scene is being done by our mutual friend, Pat Buchanan….he is not carried as widely…as he should be in the nation's newspapers….I am enclosing a column he did on a viciously obscene play by Christopher Durang. / That such trash wins awards on Broadward does not surprise me. But what is profoundly disturbing is his observation that the one hundred top Hollywood writers and producers overwhelmingly share the sentiments projected in the play…Let us hope that some how we can encourage writers, commentators, and producers who will provide an antidote for this type of poisonous propaganda…."
