Wouldn't it be great to see Keith do himself "Unplugged."

Watching him it's hard to separate the "Ads" from the "stuff" he is required to do.

But, I wonder after all these "decades" why voices are still silenced like during "McCarthy Era" and why the only Media Freedom that Reigned" was when "Monica/Clinton/Linda Tripp/Isikoff/Newsweek and Blue Dress" brought to us my "Mellon-Scaife" and Hillary's new buddy Ruppert Murdoch RULED.

Hey...what the hell... Rupert and his buddy Mellon-Scaife STILL RULE...it's only that they are disillusioned with their "handpicked Chimp" that we have ANY COVERAGE at ALL!

1. Unfortunately
I think they have to put the BS celebrity crap on to get enough viewership to continue the show.

Blame the public for that, I think. People are always interested in when celebs spawn or divorce. :puke:

2. I like it,
and so does he. It's part of his schtick (never forget that KO is an entertainer), and he clearly gets a kick out of it.

How dreary it all would be if he reported just "hard" news, don't you see?

Breaking it up is smart, and that, believe it or not, is why the show is thriving. Good mixture.

3. You got it.
And don't forget folks, even Edward R. Murrow did "Person to Person" so he could do stuff he really wanted to do.
