The voice of reason, who can ask the tough questions?

In the recent past I have become a devoted viewer of Charlie Rose, appearing on PBS television daily, Monday through Friday. He has interviewed, in the recent past, President Bush (3 times that I have seen), and every major political candidate including Barack Obama, Rudy Guiliani (last night for an hour), Hillary Clinton, McClain, Gore etc. Mr. Rose will ask the hard question regardless of who his guest is. I will give just one example of one his interviews featured on YouTube, of Zbigniew Brzezinski (the hawkish National Security Advisor to Jimmy Carter)and his credentials as listed in Wikipedia



Please go to Charlie Rose and listen to some of his less edited interviews with some of the candidates I mentioned above. One interview I would definitely listen to is an interview with three Iraqi journalists (aired 05/14/2007) Ali Fadhil, Zeyad Kasim, and Ayub Nuri (two of the three were trained in other fields such as medicine, and gave up their practice to report the war).

Much as I would like to be able to scoop the news media, with information relating to our soldiers, the fact is that very little of what is reported, by mainstream media is either factual nor timely. Sometimes the most difficult job is to find sources of information that never makes the front page or 5 o'clock news. Charlie Rose doesn't just tell you what others want us to hear, he interviews the people that are or have been the movers and shakers of the world.

Oh by the way, a great portion of his interviews are with people in the entertainment industry, the great thinkers and writers, and anyone else that is in a position to make a mark on the world. Please join the voice of reason, and check out Charlie Rose.
