Hi Glenn,
Thanks for providing Salon's view of Matthews. I have to admit that I quit watching him regularly long ago because I was repulsed by his style and lack of real content.
Perhaps he did take contrary positions to war hawks on his show. So what?
If he were sincerely interested in an anti-war stance he would have been regularly featuring anti-war activists like Scott Ritter, Howard Zinn, Gore Vidal, Noam Chomsky, Brian Becker, Sen. Robert Byrd, Rep. Dennis Kucinich Norman Soloman, Charles Lewis, Chuck Spinney, Medea Benjamin and many other legitimate voices of dissent.
The fact that he packed his show with apologists for the immoral and illegal war is proof enough of his real intent. |
