A request was submitted recently for Christopher Hitchens' appearances on CNN's Crossfire. While CNN's archives of footage remain largely unavailable to the general public, their archive of show transcripts is well maintained and continues to be published regularly. As a result, it is possible to read transcripts of all of Hitchens' appearances on CNN from 2000 to present. That list is presented below, accompanied by online video clips where available:

Thank you for the reference. I was looking for the debate around 1991 on CNN, between Hitchens and Charles Heston, but it remains an incunable, very difficult to find, transcript nor video.
Alot of these are links to transcripts, do you happen to know where one can find the video?
Can you track down Hitchens v. Heston CNN 1991 interview discussing the merits of the Gulf War?
