Like all media figures, he does exagerate either to make his point or to confirm his own beliefs, and I can't say that I always agree with his "take" on things, but to say he's "so phobic to anything resembling truth" indicates that either (1) you don't listen to him, or (2) you don't hear what he's saying.
