How will Maher approach the Gannon/Guckert interview tonight?

1. I don't know.....

from Bill's previous interviewing styles - i think he formulates his opinion, let's the guest get comfortable and then swings his loaded questions at him. (like the one he did with that professor who was talking about nazis in the WTC)


I know Bill wasn't thrilled about prossies in the press room, but i wonder whether he'll go for the jugular, or whether he's mellowed the last few weeks.

2. Last week was so painful

With that squirrelly Simpson, slimy Scarborough, and idiotic Dowd. Maher needs his balls back.

[hiley]

5. what i found funny about

last week was Simpson trying like hell to interrupt interview with Robert Kennedy , Jr. ! No go for Simpson, Bill blocked him !
Maureen Dowd is quiet as a mouse without her keyboard always, WTF? is that about ?
:shrug:

[latebloomer]

25. Maureen Dowd writes much better than she speaks

and the time before last when she was on Maher's show she seemed either drunk or medicated. Which did not help.

[sabra]

26. It was weird, she said a total of about 10 words...

[hiley]

3. kind of

hard to pick the right answer because i think maher will ask some good questions but make some jokes as well !
do you think it will just be the big screen remote interview ?
that is what i am thinking ! should be interesting though either way it goes.....
:smoke:

[sabra]

4. I believe it will be on the big screen

I can't see Guckert coming in for a face to face...

[hiley]

6. me neither

the audience would attack ! can't wait to see what goes on there.....
:popcorn:

7. What time does this air?

[sabra]

8. 10:00 PM Central

You watching, cat?

[hiley]

9. sabra did you see this ?

Ex–White House reporter Jeff Gannon learned the power of gay bloggers the hard way, by being outed as a partisan operative and an alleged former hustler. Online activists have mainstream media playing catch-up, and they’re reshaping the battle for gay equality.

11. Yep, and posted it here on Wednesday

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=3552270&mesg_id=3552270

Guckert is proud of the article. They call him a partisan operative and a hustler?!?

[hiley]

12. cool didn't see the thread before!

well, he is nothing if not but a trip and a half ...

lol

[Catherine Vincent]

13. No, I won't be able to....no HBO.

I'll have to wait for Dzika or crooks and liars.

20. Not hard to answer at all

I liked him on Comedy Central, got tired of him on the network & haven't watched him on HBO.

10. I think Maher will "get behind" Gannon/Guckert

[Catherine Vincent]

14. Since this thread is fairly active, I have a question...

I know this has to do with sax but what does "reach around" mean?

[EvolveOrConvolve]

16. Not to be graphic, but

imagine a man with another person (man or woman) behind them, reaching around and um, well, masturbating them.

I guess technically a woman could receive a reach-around, but I've always heard it used in reference to a man.

[Catherine Vincent]

17. Thanks.

Mods, you can delete the explanation.

[hiley]

23. thank you for the answer

as I had no idea what it meant either
cat thanks for having the nerve to ask .


amazing what a 45 year old don't know...
:blush:

[Catherine Vincent]

24. There's nothing wrong with being frank with people right?

:hi:

[burythehatchet]

18. omy f'ing god I just wondered the same thing yesterday

Jon Stewart used it a couple of times.

[EvolveOrConvolve]

15. My opinion

Maher's been hit-or-miss this season. :(

I think he'll warm JeffyJim up with some humorous stuff that puts him at ease, then hit him with a couple good questions. Maher's style has been humor, softball, softball, hardball, softball, hardball, etc.

I just don't understand why Maher (or anyone for that matter) is giving JimmyTop the free press. Any interviewing should be done by a prosecutor in front of a grand jury.

19. Would someone please ask the smug

bastard how he can live with himself after falsely portraying himself as a Marine? Given what the Marines are facing these days, thanks to AWOL George W. Bush, I find it odious that Mr. High Profile Loves the Limelight Gannon gets to skate by after insulting the men and women who are in Iraq and Afghanistan by pretending to have a background he didn't earn.
Where's hard-hitting tough guy Sean Hannity on this? Or street-tough (yeah, right) Bill O'Reilly? Don't they "support the troops"? Or is Sean hoping we forget his slobbering over "distinguished journalist" and guest on his show, Jeff Gannon?

21. Kkkarl rove, sits them all down, and tells them about spooky stuff

And then convinces them, they need to save their culture.

22. With cologne and a new outfit

Sorry. Had to.

I hope he goes after the nut.
