Mika To Hugh Hewitt: You're 'Uncomfortable Being Honest' About CNN Debate Format
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/18/2015 6:28:03 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

In the view of this NewsBuster, Hugh Hewitt is the ablest conservative interviewer on radio. So it was surprising to see him serve as such a loyal CNN soldier on today's Morning Joe.

Hewitt, a member of the CNN panel at Wednesday's GOP debate, refused to complain about the paltry opportunities he was given to question the candidates. And defending the fact that Donald Trump had been given twice Scott Walker and Mike Huckabee's airtime, Hewitt said that while "unfortunate," Jake Tapper had done a "marvelous" job of allocating time. That was too much for Mika Brzezinski, who bluntly told Hewitt: "I guess you're probably uncomfortable being honest about this." Mika's skepticism is on vivid display in the screengrab.

The check hasn’t cleared yet, either that or Hugh is up for a regular slot on one of their low rated shows as the token “conservative”

Isn’t it amazing how quickly the supposed conservative Hewitt is willing to sell out to a leftist news outlet as long as they pay him?

Of course Mika is right. Hewitt used his paltry allotment of time to ensure Yeb and Carly got softball questions with plenty of time to answer. He’s the David Brooks of talk radio.

Maybe they should refer to HH as the ablest GOP establishment interviewer in the interest of accuracy. :-)
