Why does he? He's not a journalist, he's a talking head. He'll challenge statements he can't get behind, but this is an opinion/entertainment show, and he's not throwing up slogans that read "fair and balanced" at every opportunity.
- thismyrealone 7y agoI don't fundamentally disagree with what you're saying, but with great power, comes great responsibility.
- vfc1 7y agoJournalist or not, he still has a responsibility to his audience. It's a shared responsibility, between him and the guests and the people that listen and take it at face value that should know better. He can very well balance better the entertainment aspect with the accuracy of the information, especially on topics that have an actual impact on people's lives like health-related topics.
