Horrible Listening Skills
I was listening to Bill Cunningham on radio station WLW out of Cincinnati. He had an expert on the opioid crisis. The expert said 75 percent of opioid addicts started out getting a prescription for pain, then the addiction went from there. Without missing a beat, Cunningham lurched in with his ignorant conservative talking point. "People today have such an entitlement mentality". It was if he hadn't listened at all to his guest. It brings up a point that many conservatives have horrible listening skills.
