FOX NEWS' MEGAN KELLY.

This is worth viewing, unless you suffer from high blood pressure.

What's truly worth noting here is that Ms Kelly (a perfect GOP specimen) can do nothing but get all riled up. All she does, as Mr Burton notes, is give a political speech.

And watch Mr Burton, calm unperturbed even as this fishwife with a dye job interrupts him and accuses him of interrupting her. He remains calm; she comes close to going ballistic.

The most laughable part to me her boast that a "million people are watching her!" Compare her "million people" to the 13 million who listen to NPR's news magazines every day.

The second most laughable part is the "e mails I get from Republicans and Democrats."
I get e mails from Republicans and Democrats too Megan. Doesn't make a 2001 interview a viable issue.

But again, as I've said before, the conservative ethos is anger, self-righteous anger.

What's her goal in this interview? To defend FOX News? Who cares Megan? The issue should stand or fall on its own. Why do you need to defend...your network? Is the issue the issue here? If so, then why not discuss it? Why get your Talbots all wrinkled about what Bill Burton thinks about FOX News? Why? Because Ms Kelly, if nothing else, knows her audience.

Anger! Anger! Anger!

Mr Burton continually raises facts, calmly and rationally, while Ms Kelly gets angry.

Megan Kelly does a great job. Her reporting of the news is excellent and delivered with class. She is a credit to her profession. To her critics, don't take life so serious,no one's getting out alive. From Chicago,N.Clark St. Post time bar,Old town casino,Arlington race track,1945-1950 JMJ
