1. That was fun!
Donny Deutsch shouldn't have let him turn the tables on him, though. But I loved his saying, "You don't have to read the book.You've got the list."

Why would anyone spend $29 on a list with a lot of gas around it?

2. I enjoyed that, thanks very much!
Being in the UK, I haven't seen this book and I'd be surprised if it's out over here.

I've now seen this guy Bernie Goldberg twice (the other time was when he was on the Daily Show) and it strikes me that on both occasions - in the clips I've seen - he was only prepared to talk about profanity and sex on television. I'm confused as to what this has to do with people like Michael Moore or Barbra Streisand or anyone else on his little list.

Could it be (gasp!) that Mr. Goldberg himself knows that his book is a big ol' pile of shite and that by continuing to talk about the demise of "the family hour" on TV, it takes attention away from that fact?

Or am I missing something?

3. His book reminds me of the McCarthy witch hunts of the 50's...

which created a Big Brother atmosphere that encouraged colleagues & friends to report those they suspected of being communists - all in the name of "patriotism".

Today they're using "patriotism" as a propaganda tool again so that the sheep will be more likely to go with this insane, fanatical administration. Propaganda is their survival; without it, they couldn't survive on the truth. So, the most notable dissenters have found their way onto Goldberg's list.

4. I have no love for Goldberg, but this was hardly a civilized debate.
And the first woman in the video really was annoying.
