Larry King guests: Shimon Peres, John Bolton, John McCain. Fair, balanced?
The other night he had an Arab spokesperson who got him told for CNN not talking about the deaths in Lebanon. Doesn't look as though he, or any of his ilk will be invited back.

On the other hand, the pictures out of Beirut make their own argument.

1. don't you know the introduction of McCain as "potential Presidential
nominee" rather than potential primary CANDIDATE.

3. I'd like to see Larry King or other tv hosts invite Bolton and Bob Herbert
onto a program.

I think that would be an illuminating evening for Mr. Bolton.

14. We've just got to accept the fact that the media is owned by
the bad guys. They stand to lose if the Republicans are kicked out. They have been at least complicit in what amounts to treason.

15. Well, one is a complete psychopath and the others are not
It guess it's balanced in that regard.

Bolton, co-founder of the PNAC strikes me as being one step away from going Neanderthal on anyone with whom he disagrees. Peres and McCain seem to be of normal sane temperament, although they are completely wrong.
