really? which interviews are you talking about? i'm curious.
i've seen o'reilly shut off the mic on anyone he disagreed with, including, iirc, the son of a 9/11 victim. i've seen hannity talk to anyone he disagrees with as if he were a traitor. i've seen them distort facts. i've never quite seen anyone hem and haw and act all indignant. it may have happened, but i'm kind of wondering who we're talking about.
i know that when the president went on o'reilly, however, he did a very good job and o'reilly liked and respected him. i don't recall baby bush ever being interviewed by a liberal.
i do know that when rand paul was inteviewed by maddow, he was so humiliaited by his own words that he never again allowed himself to be interviewed by national media again. and i know that goodlatte (and you're right... great name), he humiliated himself.
i'll be happy to go look up the video of any democrat who hemmed and hawwed and was cowed by the mighty interviewers at foxnews.
Check Oddball's post just before this one.

I don't watch Hannity, he's a bit of an ass and reminds me of Olberman.
with O'Riely, you run into time constraints. he doesn't have of give anyone time to blather on ane on. He asks straight questions and expects straight answers. Wondering off topic isn't tolerated.
yeah, i saw his post. just because he says that it was a bad interview doesn't make it a bad interview. in fact, i thought he did rather well. but then again, i'm not reading what some blogger says about the interview... i actually watched it just now.
Fox News Megyn Kelly Anthony Weiner Interview
the congressman made megyn kelly look really stupid because he kept answering her and she kept talking over him being really belligerant. i didn't see him hem and haw at all in that 11 minute segment ... did you? i did see him roll his eyes as she talked over him and finally just stop and clap his hands together waiting for her to shut up. try watching it instead of assuming that because someone with an agenda says something that it's true.
o'reilly didn't shut off anyone's mic because he ran out of time. he shut their mic because he didn't want anyone disagreeing with him as he shouted them down. i will say that since beck came around, o'reilly's mellowed and kind of become the semi-sane voice at fox.
That wasn't the interview that I saw, where he was asking himself questions.
I have crappy googlefu, so no worries.
