If he was on a Michael Moore show OK
But does Donny sell itself as a lib show?
Not at all.
It is the Big Idea.
And Donny is still a Deutschb#g.

[poobear]

"Dozens were tuned in to see this debacle.."

;D!

Including the 6 on the panel.

[clintonh8r]

"Donny"? What is he, 16?

[Non-Sequitur]

But does Donny sell itself as a lib show?

Never having seen the Deutsch show I wouldn't know what it sells itself as. But come on, MSNBC? If Bernie wants to guarantee himself no-hassle interviews then he should stick to Fox.

[Armigerous]

"They've got me surrounded-the poor bastards!"

[since1868]

Even Fox would not do 6 on 1.
I am just saying he was tricked.

I read where Franken blasted Goldberg pretty hard several times about Bias and basically calling Bernie out several times for being a liar. Hence the Frankenstein in the title.

Goldberg admitted that this was not as serious of a book as his others. In fact, he called it "light, summer reading".

I don't think he is just pandering... at least I hope not because I like him too.

Us bookaholics will say ANYTHING as an excuse to buy more... ;)

Hello, my name is retrokitten and I, too, am a bookaholic. And I agree. ;-)

Ya, I bet you hate to say it. The problem for you is it is Hannity's show, he goes one on one with them, and when he sees the guest rambling or spinning; its his job to cut them off.

If you don't like it don't watch; but to compare this to what the clowns at this DOMMY DEUTCH show did is rediculous.

How are things at DU?

[Always Right]

Bernie's got nothin' to fear. CNBC? nobody'll see it except their mothers.............

And their gay lovers.

[garyhope]

Donny Deutsch is a pretty boy. That's why he has a show.

It's mostly superficial pap masquerading as "serious" stuff with a "respectful" tone toward it's celebrity nit wit guests.

[retrokitten]

He wore a tight white tee shirt, and his nipples showed...it was shudderingly gross.

Ewww... (making a face like a smelled really, nasty old milk that has separated)

I like Goldberg, but this book really seems to be nothing more than a big giant pander to sell books to conservatives. If not, why put Franken in the title?

I agree completely. I have my own biases, and I love the concept of Goldberg's new book; but it looks like he quickly compiled a name of people that conservatives are known to dislike then put it into list form to make an easy buck. It looks cheesy.

[Reactionary]

I guess it takes six moronic liberals to gang up on someone. Let to their own devices, they're unable to debate anyone.

[Echo Talon]

Didn't the women of the "View" do this to someone also?

[Non-Sequitur]

I am just saying he was tricked.

And I'm just saying that if Bernie wants to set out to piss off the liberals then he shouldn't be surprised if they set out to do the same to him.

[kempo]

Donny Deutsch Bag had the other 5 liberals on with him because he is not intelligent enough to carry on a conversation with Goldberg. Deutsch Bag is a phony. His rating numbers prove it.

	My take is that there is a big difference between a contentious debate on even a liberal show and a Jerry Springer type of shout-down. IMHO, Jack Welch needs to come back to kick this guys ass off the air.  The executive producer also: (Cutler told Goldberg that the executive producers had forced her to set Goldberg up for the attack... http://www.captainsquartersblog.com/mt/archives/004998.php )

I wish I'd read your post before I wrote my last one. Sounds like Bernie's book might be better than it sounds.

Regarding John Stossel's book, it's a shame that the very stupid-sounding subtitle was tacked on by the editors.

Tell us about all your talk shows,and ALL the books you have written,and how popular you are,and how attractive you are. RIGHT! Jealousy is an ugly thing to witness.
