Evan Wright turned the articles he wrote as an embedded journalist in Iraq for Rolling Stone into the award winning book “Generation Kill.” Wright sold the rights to HBO, who promised to re-create the book with the same grittiness and harsh realism that Wright captured in his book. The result is “Generation Kill,” the miniseries.
Guest: Evan Wright, journalist and author of the book “Generation Kill” and consulting producer for the HBO miniseries “Generation Kill.”
