He might not be a whack job, but he is the protoypical, smarter than you radiohost. If you don't agree your either ignorant, ill informed or an idiot. I can't stand him. Dan Yorke has the same smugness, but is at least more pallatable and less insulting.

Bill Moyers on PBS is really the only one with any credibility but doesn't cover the issues on a nightly basis as the others do. He's out of the old-school Cronkite/Murrow mold of serious journalists.
Although I watch some or mostly all of Olberman, Matthews and Maddow almost every night, I find sometimes I just can't take the manic ranting for very long - however they do pick up on some important points that the others seem to miss.
I think they need to downgrade to decaf or something - it would make it a little more bearable...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Smug - yes, annoying occasionally. Right? Sadly more often than not.

I find Matt Allen to be exceptionally bad. About the same level of political discourse I get on WEEI.
