The Sunday Talking Head Shows; My Favorite And Yours

 SUNDAY ROUTINE:

Glance at the Talk Shows which have dragged lately.

Meet The Press hasn't been the same since Tim Russert's death. Not a big Chuck Todd fan. Too Beltway for my taste and looks more like a Midwest dentist.

This Week  is an acquired taste; am I the only person who actually likes George Stephanopoulos? Sure, he can appear to be occasionally pompous--it's human nature, I've been known to be pompous too.

I've tried to watch Fox News Sunday but I can't stand Chris Wallace. His dad was better.

I've saved the best for last: CBS' iconic Face The Nation is the best Sunday talking-head program. Bob Schieffer is superb--seems to be getting better with age. Great interviewer. Common sense guy with a knack for asking the right question and tough as nails to boot. No surprise that FTN is the most popular show on Sunday.

Gavin Newsom wants to be POTUS; Makes High-profile Appearance on Meet the Press

Gavin Newsom was on Meet the Press Sunday.

He's been doing a lot of TV and radio appearances. He has a book out and has been making a lot of speeches. Curiously, very little of his speeches has had anything to do about his current title, Lieutenant Governor of California. That's not a knock on Newsom--clearly, he has his eyes on the big job.

I think he eventually wants to be President.

When you write books, make speeches, and get a coveted appearance on Meet the Press, there's a mission in mind.
