This edition: Who Was Richard Holbrooke?

Episode Details

Original tape date: November 26, 2019. First aired: December 9, 2019.

Richard Holbrooke was almost great. He was Clinton’s Ambassador to the UN. He opposed the Vietnam war early on. He helped end the war in Bosnia. But his character was deeply flawed. Holbrooke’s biographer George Packer tells Jim Zirin that he "never knew a man who had better motives for all the trouble he caused.”
