I don't watch much television, but the debates gave me a good perspective on the leading MSM commentators. I agree that Greta is superb. John Dickerson at CBS is outstanding too. And yes, despite the killer voice and good looks, Megyn Kelly doesn't really soften her questions. So she comes off as the tough broad -- not angry, just really tough questions that are meant to take somebody out. Fox is trying to attract a broad audience and they felt they needed a NeverTrump commentator who would go after Trump 24/7. She fit the bill and attracted all the Trump enemies. And considering the low ratings of the Trump/Kelly matchup, it seems she lost of both sides: the NeverTrump and the FReepers both didn't watch. Regardless, The best TV journalists don't read their carefully crafted questions, but deliver their well-researched points naturally -- and without the hard edge. The iron fist inside the velvet glove. |
