G R E A T !

Thanks for the reminder. I had meant to listen to that...

Gotta be honest. Disappointed. I was waiting for the great "unloading," but really they just mixed it up a bit. I dunno. Maybe I was expecting too much.

Sorry you felt that way. Did you listen to the whole 9 minutes at LGF?

The comments on LGF were positive.

The comments on the BBC website were 100% against Bolton, a little screening? All the news that fits our worldview we print?

Melanie Phillips was also positive on the match.

"As a demonstration of the astounding prejudices of the BBC mindset, the loaded nature of its questioning and the assumptions it makes about its interviewees, and the circular fact that by definition such a mindset makes it simply impossible for it to acknowledge even the possibility that it might have descended from the summit of Mount Objectivity into the gutter of twisted journalism, the spat could hardly be bettered. The BBC is now a totally closed thought system, and if John Bolton didn’t know that before, he certainly knows it now. "

Well, I didn't say I didn't like, just that perhaps I got my hopes up too high. I liked Melanie Phillips' take on it for sure.
