| Fareed Zakaria GPS is the best Sunday news show. Screw MTP and others |
|
I don't care for Colin Powell that much but respect his expertise and this intelligent conversation. Powell's viewpoints on Pakistan and Palin were refreshing. Fareed asks intelligent questions and lets the guest explore all aspects of it without interrupting with gotcha questions that sidetrack the question.

He gives people time to actually answer the questions. The conversations are always intelligent and very entertaining. It's the only show I look foward to on Sundays now and I'm telling everyone I know about it.

| 10. Oh, definitely. Someone give Gregory his toaster so he can go home! |

Fareed is so smart and well informed and even handed. When he has a preference, he owns it. It's just like listening to an intelligent conversation and has no place on American teevee.
lol

| 13. I tried a couple of the MTP, FTN and even Faux this morning |
|
But couldn't last longer than a minute or so with any of them. I could almost always predict the questions and the answers on each of the shows, no matter who it was.
Zakaria is the go to guy now with people with clout like Gore and Powell. They don't even waste their time and mine with the others now.
