Soledad O'Brien: if I wanted to watch Chris Matthews I would watch him |
|
instead of you trying to imitate him.
You have a group of pundits, each with a lot of knowledge and experience in covering politics. You ask a question, now shut up and let them talk. Instead you either interject your "answer" in the question, meaning you want them to nod and say: oh, yea, how perceptive of you.
Or you cut them in mid sentence. You have so many hours to fill, why can't you let them take as much time as they want to reply? Don't worry. They know that this is TV and they need to cater to the short attention span crowd.
Only when Carl Bernstein kinda got back at you that you've already answered, you withdrew saying: no, no, I am just asking.
Why did CNN decide to have her anchoring the day report?

5. And you, no doubt, are the final authority about judment |
|
(I won't even comment about motivation. Motivation?)
But hey, why bother to be engaged in a meaningful debate when just spitting offenses is so much easier?
Here is a suggestion. Go to your nearest community college, take some basic courses in reading and comprehension so that you can understand what others are saying and able to comment.

blatantly partisan, she is also dumb.
