Yeah. Their idea of a "fair interview" is "I get to recite my talking points and you don't get to ask critical questions."
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Most of them can't handle "fair" without "and balanced."

She asks them to provide supporting evidence for their wild-ass comments. How are they supposed to handle that? It's so unreasonable.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
There is no point in getting into an argument with someone who I only distantly know, even though she used a non-political mailing list to pimp out a "petition" about how Jesus should lead America, or something.
I should take a nap instead.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You don't have much time left for napping, Dana! You'd better get them in while you can. (I imagine your new job will preclude most naps, but feel free to correct me. Anything to stop from getting into futile arguments on the internet...)

Do they (or their staff) not bother to do a bit of research first?
Until she takes them apart and then at the end takes their balls out of her pockets and says "Bye...don't forget these. You may have heard, I don't need them." I get a little less straight every time.
Hee! I have a serious girl-crush on her, myself. Smart, funny, geeky, pretty but not like CNN's Twinkies are pretty, what's not to love?

I don't know, but they usually start out smiling and using her name a lot, and by the end they look like they have gas. It's funny.
