2. It was worth watching for her
She held her end just fine and made her arguements clearly, Williams on the other hand just sounded like a fool.

4. She was terrific, as usual
Last time I saw Williams, Bernie Ward was debating him and Williams did miserably. I don't think he did any better against Goodman.

Wolf had Bernie on again Monday with Ann Coulter and made her look like a smug fool.

Wolf has had the sharp liberals on lately during this time segment. Bernie asked that we write to Wolf asking him to have Bernie on again. I think I'll write to him about Amy today as well.

7. Amy and Bernie are great... but when are they really going to be fair?
When Amy was on CNN a couple weeks ago, she was up against three other right wingnuts. They need to get some serious people on like Zinn and Chomsky. Its pretty amazing that they portray them as communists, if anything theyre socialists. Bush and the republicans these days are anything but conservatives, they're either proto-nazis or hegemonic Communists.

8. Cafferty on CNN this year said Air America was a communist radio station.

9. good point!
but i think zinn and chomsky don't have the quick silver tongued media experience of bernie and amy. you know how sharp bernie is on his radio show. zinn and chomsky are soft spoken people who speak slowly. so, for the short tv segments, amy and bernie are probably terrific choices for our side.

but your point is well taken about the mixing of apples and oranges.

11. lol! Not even CNN can ignore Any Goodman any longer!
They tried for years and years, but her reputation is so solid that her fame just kept growing and growing, and now the corporate media can't ignore her any longer. I love it! :)

14. Doesn't Armstrong realize the gig is up?
He's a walking joke.

A complete buffoon.
