Related: About this forumGwen Ifill smacks down Don Imus
&feature=youtu.be"There has been radio silence from a lot of people ... who could have spoken up and said, 'I find this offensive,'" Gwen Ifill said. "These people didn't speak up."
Then, she turned to Tim Russert and David Brooks:
"Tim, we didn't hear from you. David, we didn't hear from you."

If so, I would recommending checking out a live broadcast for political junkies, of course.

I don't know about the newest season, but at least for a while, her voice could still be heard on Antiques Roadshow at the end of the donors list: "...and contributions to your local station from people like you. Thank you." Still chokes me up.
