I take it back.

recently he was interviewing someone who escaped injury and he pushed his religioness onto that person by saying - paraphrasing - 'guess the first thing you did was thank god' and he pushed on this until the person said yes. the person had said how he had felt escaping injury and did not mention praying.

I was surprised at him pushing the issue until he got the answer he wanted.

disappointing.

1. I like him too, but he's definitely not challenging anyone. This morning he did
a story on Chrysler buffs here in ATL who hope the company comes back. All well and good, but when they said stuff about how they wanted to keep
"muscle cars" on the road and that they hoped they kept making them, all I could think was why didn't he ask if they believed in global warming? Nada.
Nothing about oil dependence, the environment, or even just the practicality of that market as viable in the future. Lame.

"Let's show it again"....
