Off Topic » in reply to Bill O'Reilly vs. Terry Gross

Yeah, I heard that in the car

We were on our way to the orthodontist. I eventually had to turn it off, because we were already held up by construction and I find it to be unsafe to listen to something that makes me mad while already in an aggravating situation that requires all my attention. It was available online at npr.org later in the day anyway.

Ms. Gross was the epitome of courtesy, as always. For once, one heard an interview with O'Reilly's voice in it that didn't feature the interviewer shouting at and talking over the guest. However, the guest began to remake the dialog in his own image toward the end, and even told Ms. Gross she didn't know how to read at one point. She proved she did by reading aloud a paragraph whose "contents" he cited incorrectly, thus proving that, though he might know how to read, he doesn't do it very often. She reached the break, and I reached for another station.
