His interview was only with Bill Maher. But I completely agree, Maher wasn't at all tough on him, gave him chance after chance to redeem himself, but he just stubbornly kept digging himself in deeper. And I'm not that familiar with him, I'm in New York, so I wasn't aware of his background - or that he was already in serious trouble. And not bringing that up was a big omission on Bill's part, but he bent over backwards to keep things "friendly." If he'd been on the panel with the others, things could have turned out much differently.
