I had been starting to think Jimmy might have been getting better just of late; he had seemed to be having more obviously leftist content and guests and doing segments that would alienate a lot of the audience he had attracted but it seems that must have been a coincidence.
I saw an interesting segment with Chris Hedges on his show the other day but was put off by the bits JD had edited so he could rattle off talking points to various issues Hedges mentioned, as if he was doing that during the interview but they had clearly been inserted later so there was no correction or pushback by Hedges.
The "bandwidth" excuse is pathetic and it seems to be the kind of thing he comes out with when he wants to push a line that he thinks feigning ignorance of the subject will somehow excuse.
