In today's Columbus Dispatch,Tim Feran, TV-radio critic notes the media blitz enjoyed this week by Bill Clinton. He has been on 60 Minutes (Dan Rather's discussion on Larry King about the Clinton interview was more interesting than the actual interview), Oprah Winfrey, Today (saw it), GMA, Larry King Live (saw it), Charlie Rose and Fresh Air with Terry Gross. I see he is going to be on NPR's Tavis Smiley this evening (like that show!).
Apparently, though, he is not going to be on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Feran says Stewart's show is booked with "frivolous guests such as Sen. John McCain and Ralph Nader." I don't consider McCain a frivolous guest and what Nader lacks in widespread appeal he makes up for in earnest tenancity, an good quality regardless of what one thinks of his being in the race.
I've seen Clinton on several programs and his book is being sold in the local grocery at 40% off and I sense the marketplace is getting enough. But, I think it might have been the one interview really worth watching.
