Rachel: can u ask a question in fewer than 200 words?

[PCIntern]

Please....?

[AmyStrange]

1. Why?

[PCIntern]

2. Because it's an hour show and she's been talking 70 percent of

The time.

[AmyStrange]

6. Sorry...

-

I misunderstood
=========

[dem4decades]

3. Her melodrama is just too much for me. Just get on with it.

[BlueIdaho]

4. Relax - it's going great. nt.

[jcgoldie]

5. She's the best at what she does and her research is beyond reproach

Your OP sucks.

[StarfishSaver]

14. Social media and the internet has substantially reduced people's attention spans

If it's not in a tweet-sized bite, they think it's overdone ...

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

19. Yup. Rachel tries to be as precise as possible, and sometimes

that's not possible in questions designed for the attention span of your typical gerbil.

[StarfishSaver]

20. True

It's easy to lie, show off, and pontificate in short soundbytes. But if you're asking intelligent, well-researched questions, that can take a lot longer.

21. Her vocal masturbation is annoying and unnecessary.

[PCIntern]

22. She is not the best:

She’s good, she’s prepared, she’s somewhat erudite. Give me Terry Gross any day, or Lawrence O’Donnell, or several others. I like Rachel, but she’s the star on her show. That’s my opinion, you are entitled to yours.

[dubyadiprecession]

7. I miss her three part, 200 word questions.

[Raine]

8. That's the reason I quit watching her

too frustrating the way she drags things out.

[stillcool]

9. It's Rachel...

I like that she prefaces a question, with background so that it is understood, as much as the answer. To each their own. I hear CNN is pretty good these days.

[PCIntern]

10. She obviously saw my post.

She’s reformed.

[a kennedy]

12. Yah, that's it she did see your post......NOT.

It’s 20 minutes into her show.......give her time....we’re talking about, what, Mikes’s tenure with tRump, how long was that??

[PCIntern]

15. You ain't got no sensayuma.

[rzemanfl]

11. Congrats on 20,000 posts. It's Rachel's interview. I think it's going great. n/t

[DrToast]

13. Repeater in chief

Get to the point...

[IcyPeas]

16. It's a great interview

She asks the complicated questions. She said she read the entire book, even though she hadn't planned on it.

She is THOROUGH.

[AmyStrange]

17. I agree...

-

liars like long questions, because they get to choose which part of the question to answer, and they very rarely answer the important part.

They're also easier to sidetrack.

18. I think she's doing a great job, as usual

We've gotten too used to everything being done fast and quick. Everything doesn't lend itself to that approach.

[Nexus2]

23. I find her approach and demeanor engaging and informative.

But opinions are like anuses, everyone has one and most think everyone else's stinks.

[USALiberal]

24. Lol, post not going well for you! Nt

[PCIntern]

26. I'm happy with it.

She repeats the commonly known history with the question as though the viewer and the subject are completely ignorant. Then she restates the question from another viewpoint. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

[nolabear]

25. No way. She starts with a carefully researched premise and then asks the question.

People don’t screw around with Rachel. She can point to her sources and doesn’t back down.

I was actually surprised at her interview with Cohen tonight. They both laughed a lot, which is unusual.

[PCIntern]

27. I'm not amused.

Did she ask him about Epstein? And why Trump wanted a piece of Cohen’s 15 year old daughter.

[USALiberal]

28. Lol, ok! Send her a list! Nt
