Are both listeners still tuning in to Air America?
Speaking as an alumnus of the ultra-liberal Macalester College, I'm quite surprised that one of the Mac Weekly reporters really called Franken on his B.S. Maybe the school is changing, but I have my doubts - everytime I go back there or hear/read about what's going on there, it seems as though the lefties are still out in full force. Whenever I'm on campus, I pick up a copy of the latest Mac Weekly, and it's still usually filled with leftist columns.
Still, the liberals at Mac tend to be of the honest, principled variety (Wellstone types), so maybe it shouldn't be that surprising that they're not just going to give Franken a free pass, which is probably what he was expecting. I'm sure the school's liberal reputation is what made him agree to do the interview in the first place, and then he was shocked when they had real questions for him.
