So good on ESPN dribbling on about sports that do not affect what is going on in the world around us? Yes, he was a good sportscaster and knowledgeable about it as well, but I like him as a journalist speaking truth to power. I agree there could be many other candidates for worst person, but it is just one segment out of many and not the most important out there.

Say what you want about Michelle Malkin is one fine looking woman. If only she could keep her mouth shut.

[Kerkopes]

Agreed. And the only person "worse" than KO is Bill O'Reilly. That man is a complete buffoon and doesn't warrant the attention that KO [or anyone else for that matter] gives him. KO needs to cut that guy lose from his commentaries and concentrate on intelligent, unbiased, informative interviews. Good talking with you.

OK, I'm pretty much in agreement with everything you say here. :-) I have honestly had the same thoughts that you articulated here while watching his show. I don't know how much of his guest list is dictated by who he wants to have on, as opposed to who is willing (from the right wing in particular) to go on his show and potentially be ripped into tiny trembling pieces. My guess is that it is more of the latter then the former. Cheers!

[Kerkopes]

Yes, I watched the McClellan interview and I agree, it was good. KO was calm, intelligent and articulate. The irony is ... and he eluded to it himself when he asked who was more surprised that McClellan was there ... that if McClellan hadn't had a change of heart [from right to left], KO wouldn't have given him the time of day. And for me that's the disappointing part I guess. If only KO could have similar interviews with people he actually disagreed with.

[greyskye]

Did you see his interview with Scott McClellan on 5/29? It was about a 40 minute, in-depth interview the likes of which are seldom seen these days. The last time I saw an interview like that was on Rose, or with Jim Lehrer on PBS. And personally, I enjoy his 'Special Comment' rants. Something this country has been in need of in recent years is a prominent voice speaking 'truth to power'. I'm thankful that KO has stepped up to the plate in that regard.

[Kerkopes]

I guess what I would like to see is a kinder and gentler KO, one who doesn't keep a list of "worst" people or routinely call people liars simply because he doesn't know or agree with his or her motives. He could take a lesson from Larry King or Charlie Rose. Learn a little from your foes instead of bashing them over the head every night. I enjoy parts of his show, but the pretentious interviews and rhetorical rants are getting too routine and predictable.
