Charlie Rose to Bryant Gumbel: You Owe It To Us to Offer More Masterful Liberal Bias

Charlie Rose to Bryant Gumbel on PBS: You Owe It To Us to Offer More Masterful Liberal Bias (NewsBusters)

HBO Real Sports host Bryant Gumbel was interviewed by Charlie Rose on his PBS talk show on Wednesday night (but here in Washington, we saw it after the debates on Thursday night). Or you could say Gumbel was simply flattered by Charlie Rose, flattered to the point that Rose lectured Gumbel that he owes the world more of his wonderful voice – read nasty liberal bias and invective, as he offered on NBC and then on CBS – comparing him to a Marlon Brando of newscasting.

Rose swore he wasn’t sucking up to Gumbel, which he certainly was, but perhaps he thought he was acknowledging Gumbel’s talent like a man observes a sunrise.
