Reply #: If someone ever kept a video tally of how he treats Democrats/Republicans.

it would become obvious that he leans much more to the people who are right of center. I don't think anyone would want to waste their time doing that, but at one time, I was tempted.

I had a love/hate relationship with Tweety because I like fast talking shows and I happen to simply like something about Chris himself. Maybe it was his laugh..HA!, or his smile. It had nothing to do with his politics.

The other night I was soaking in the tub so I put the TV on Hardball. From the other room, just listening, it was so obvious he was cutting off Amy Goodman (maybe he doesn't like her as a person) and being very rude to her. And she was making so much sense and not just rattling on. Then he let the Republican counter-part, sorry, I don't remember who it was, talk on and on, with very little interruption and then later in the show he heeped praise upon praise on Lindsey Graham, a Republican Senator, just because the guy rattled off a bunch of right wing talking points. He thinks the right wing talking points are a PLAN, but if the Democrats sit there and try and tell him what THEY want to do, he cuts them off and then says the Democrats don't have a plan.

Yeah, Tweety has finally lost me. He will go after the big story even if it's against Republicans, simply because just like every other reporter, TV journalist, whatever he is, he loves some juicy news. But, he will then slip in the NO PLAN Democrats and all hail Republican brilliance whenever he can. Maybe he thinks that's being balanced. I don't know. I can take a bit of pandering to both sides if he needs to keep sources, but, to me, there is something not quite fair and balanced on the Tweety show.

EDITED to say..WOW! Fifteen people posted while I was writing this.
