In the late 90s, Chris Matthews was one of the most objective journalists around.
I can’t believe Fox hasn’t hired Steyn for a Saturday night program. Would much prefer him to Greg Gutfeld for a Saturday night of Fun, perspective and some really great tunes.
In the mid-90s, Mathews was kind of like Pat Caddell, an old fashioned Democrat who loved America and the rule of law. He gave up that shtick around 2003 and became full-fledged leftist loon. Probably for the money.
I remember listening to Matthews hosting Limbaugh’s show.
The way it looks to me, Matthews was the same guy back then. Only difference was the way he presented himself. His agenda has always been to attempt to change the way people think.
I would guess Matthews had handlers and still does. And that his agenda was the same then as it is now.
I loved it when he had Bob B-1 Dornan on as a guest host. I got through and talked to him once.
Please elaborate.... thanks.
He would mention his father (and brother) now and then with love in his voice.
I think the Clintons came to town, his father died, and his wife ran for office, and he lost his grounding. Now, he even hates God.
I heard the Matthews guest appearance too. He was pretty good. Those were the days when many TV personalities were experimenting with talk radio. Most discovered that it is not the same as scripted TV with incidental chatter.
I also watched Chris Matthews every Sunday that I could. Then he attacked Michelle Malkin. He showed himself to be a lefty that beats up girls. Can’t believe it was that long. It was incident to the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth advocacy in John Kerry’s presidential challenge.
Both Mark Steyn and Dr. Williams are awesome as guest hosts. Dr. Sowell would occasionally call in to Williams as well. Nothing lasts forever but I hope they are around for years to come. Steyn needs his won show years ago.
