He spends far too much time on the most trivial issues and is always looking to create controversy. He is not the most capable journalist to moderate a debate on important issues.
In the Brown/Warren debate, he jumped right into the "Native American" issue and spent far too much time on it. In my opinion, he does not seem prepared or knowledgeable about issues that matter to people.

(3,526 posts)...a brain-challenged right-winger like Brown should have been able to answer in front of a hostile crowd.

(23,500 posts)Scalia is likely the LEAST favorite Supreme Court justice in living memory for most in Massachusetts.

(21,925 posts)That could describe almost the entire field of journalism in this country with exceptions you could probably count on one hand, like Amy Goodman, Thom Hartmann, or Rachel Maddow.
