Cato fellows [Nat Hentoff](https://www.cato.org/people/nat-hentoff) and [Penn Jillette](https://www.cato.org/people/penn-jillette) have just been profiled in major publications — [Hentoff in the New York Times](http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/06/17/a-steady-voice-on-jazz-and-politics-still-going-strong/?scp=2&sq=hentoff&st=cse) and Penn in Vanity Fair. Warning: the Hentoff profile is mostly about jazz, and the Penn interview contains lots of four-letter words, obscene imagery, and harsh language about religion. So if you have a low tolerance for jazz or for obscenity and blasphemy, be forewarned. But it’s no surprise that both of them talk a lot about the importance of free speech.
