On the other hand, many of these talking heads make their living by pretending to be objective and above the fray. CNN has a show called "No Bias, No Bull" or something stupid like that. It might be a great show. I refuse to watch it. The title is just too ridiculous. Likewise with Mattews' so-called "Hard Ball." If he likes what the guest is saying, he won't challenge it at all. The rest of the show consists of him interrupting people.
