Worst of all the prentention of this being new media ("the blogesphere") has got to be the biggest fraud of all. It may be possible to gather a broad spectrum of opinion (qualified by nothing) but if you filter it all through the liberal bias of someone like Lydon, ultimately we are only hearing one narrow point of view. The fact that this program has ceased production is no loss.Read full review »
