Neil deGrasse Tyson on the media, etc.

Next year brings a remake of Carl Sagan's Cosmos, and CJR has a wide-ranging interview with its host, astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson. Among his topics is Tyson's philosophy on Twitter: "The 140 characters are giving you access to how my brain is wired in any day of my life, how I see things. Like my tweet when Mitt Romney suggested that we cut PBS’s budget to reduce the deficit. I said that’s like deleting text files to make space on your 500-gigabyte hard drive."
