1. Bill Moyers was my choice -
Maddow would have been second. Hannity would just sit there and drool all over him so I'm happy he wasn't an option.

2. LOL. True -- Hannity would do just that.
And then who would pay for all the towels?

12. I agree with you
Moyers could speak the same language very well - would make for a very interesting meeting.

6. If I had all of Warren's money, I'd give that amount to hear that inteview.
It would be too hot to handle for local media, but I'd tune in just the same.

9.  "Had a chance to listen to Malloy last night. I enjoy his program.
I think he'd do a great job interviewing Warren.

8.  I love Bill Moyers, but he would be too much of a gentleman. If it can't be Shatner...
Edited on Fri Dec-19-08 09:37 AM by Bucky
... let it be Maddow. With Warren, I want to see a little dust flying.

10. I see your point. What would be interesting in that match up for me is
that I suspect Warren is more the shrewd businessman than the adherent Christian.

Moyers would be the sage Buddha mind slowly undoing the interviewee.

11. There is no more sage member of the media, if you can call him that, than Moyers
and Warren needs to be handled with the kind of nuance and acuity that only Bill can bring.

13. Hey there and howdy.
I love Moyers on any subject. Of course on politics and society he truly shines, but hell, I'd listen to him if he started a recipe show.

14. If I were to be religious, OC, Moyers would have to be my pastor
His closing remarks on Friday nights are the best sermons you'll ever hear.

31. Not true. Warren is the hot topic right now, as many of us distrust him
as he has fans.

I believe him to be a shrewdly intelligent marketer but not much of a Christian. Take Bill Moyers, for example, and you can see where I'm going with this poll.

32. You have a point -- Malloy is awfully good and has the sort of
realist's vision that can see smackdab thru a charlatan like Warren, but there'd have to be a heightened security presence to the interview!

33. Well, the man is in the news.
The poll question aims for an exposure of a false Christian. Maybe his flock thinks Warren is authentic, but I don't. It doesn't sound like you do either, and so the journalists I suggested were chosen to expose a man who has borne false witness.

35. I would love to see the Bill Moyers interview.
Rick Warren would be reduced to a small pile of sad. Yes, sad. Smaller than sand.

36. Wouldn't a two hour interview be worse than a short prayer?
For all this talk of "legitimizing" and "spreading the message," this is kind of a funny thread, given the responses.
