Like you I found him informative and interesting when he first started and kept to the issues he spoke about....I could even tolerate his outbursts and clowning around for a time.
However he’s mixed too many “other” messages within the framework of his shows...and personal stuff I really have no interest in. In doing so he’s gone off the mark of what his shows were once about.
Before he was popular because he didn’t make himself the center of his program....the focus was events and happenings, research and revealing. Now it’s so often about the latest “hype” he hype’s even further and the focus is lost along the way.
what are his principles?
Is he looking for truth and the hard facts or just emotionally reactionary
Look at the new positions he is taking..
he gone progressives left in his new positions.(, gays, bundy,illegals. .just to name a few)..
he even apologize for his old conservative position..he did that at the start of the year.
he ready for a slot on MSNBC
Hes become the new Chris Matthews
(recall Matthews many many years back was a fill in guest host for Rush!)
