Meh. He's said a lot of stupid crap in his career (and everyone has), but his intentions are in the right place and he's a good source of info when it comes to the IMPORTANT issues. The rest will of course be mired in "entertainment", because everyone on the airwaves or cable need to attract as many people as possible in order to keep the show going, and continue to deliver information to people. You can't gripe about how they all try to incorporate entertainment aspects because that's the only way they'll stay in business for goodness sake. Yet, that doesn't mean their prime directive is to entertain. For many, it is to INFORM people.
