    I like George and the show .. been watching for 20 years ..

    Why bother interviewing boring gas bags like Shiff and the other guy ..

    Just focus on the panel .. give them more time to flesh things out ..

    I love Donna but I’m getting bored .. fresh face please .. someone 40 ..

  • Dumb and dumber

    I have been watching George for many years on Australian TV, now he’s gone, thank god for pod casts.The Trump fallout has reached our shores . White House cut backs have been a silent fog covering the World. This man doesn’t rule for American people ,but just for his personal ideals. David Muir has also been taken from my screen. God HELP America.!!!!!

His referring to the shooter as a young man was so frequent — nearly every sentence — it was obviously deliberate. And it was disgusting, disturbing. Would that have been allowed if the shooter were cis-gender?... more

  • Very poor and one-sided news information

    It would be terrific to have a News show that doesn’t lean so far to the right or left But to give us news information for us to make our own opinions. The verbiage that is used by your reporters is horrible and the views are terribly one-sided.
