Ed On Softballs
Ed Cone was on the Brad and Britt show this morning on WZTK to discuss the Jeff Gannon....er...James Guckert matter. The best exchange came after Britt's claimed Fox is indignant over the matter.
Apparently, only Fox is allowed to lob softball questions to President Bush. It sounded better than it reads, but Ed's delivery and tone of voice sealed the laugh.
Britt: "...They [Fox] are trying to be somewhat critical of the administration."
Ed: " Oh...Yeah...I noticed that."
Later, Ed debated a caller who tried to argue that the press is selectively persecuting poor Gucker and that President Clinton got a free pass for eight years. Hello? Does anyone remember Ken Starr, Whitewater, File Gate, or Clinton's impeachment?
