Greetings from Netroots Nation! I moderated a panel called "Challenging Mainstream Media Narratives on Right Wing Extremism", and Jesse was one of the panelists. You can watch it already here:

Other panelists included Sarah Posner, Adele Stan, David Neiwert, and David Holthouse. We talked about the militia movements, hate groups, Tea Party extremism, the Christian patriarchy movement, and the way that the relatively unremarkable New Black Panthers situation got far more media attention than the more serious acts of voter intimidation that go on all the time in this country.
