Still watchable, even in an age where true journalism is under attack.

This show still has some merit in the post-Kuralt era. Art, Music, humor, news, though there are too many repeats. I find it sad that one of the other posters complains about this show's supposed liberal leanings. I think conservatives would like to sweep the truth under the rug. After all, we all want to be happy all the time, we don't need wet blankets ruining the party. Just today, Nancy Giles said Robert Novak should be in jail! How shocking! (and it IS shocking, that THAT statement got on the air) As the corporate media (and their conservative owners)lunge to the right, the radical right screams bloody murder if an occasion fact dribbles out.

And it's working quite well for them.
