Thom hartmann is now interviewing jerome corsi . I threw up and

[Fullduplexxx]

Turned thom off it is the last show of his i will listen to

[RhodeIslandOne]

1. A sad end

Thom used to be pretty good.

[cilla4progress]

2. Why?

eom

[Eliot Rosewater]

3. Much to be learned about folks and soon. Stay tuned.

Not to his show, god no, but to news about folks.

[whathehell]

4. Talking to the other side doesn't mean he agrees with him..

He's probably arguing with him.

[JHB]

17. Corsi isn't "the other side", he's a propagandist and political vandal...

...and if he believes even half the things he promulgates, a compete loon, too.

Unless the topic is "all the things you lied about before, we're not even getting to current claims", there's no point. And even then, it would just be a platform for him to lie some more.

[whathehell]

18. Thom takes on RWing nuts all the time..

They've yet to "convert" his audience...I like Thom a lot and I trust him -- To each his own.

[jodymarie aimee]

28. Thom is a God to me...

and always will be....

[NightWatcher]

30. Be careful whom you worship, especially when they were on Putin's RT payroll.

And don't fall for his "I had content control" nonsense. No one is going to pay you and not expect you to represent their opinions and positions. He played a role for Putin in his Cold War against the United States. So to is anyone else who was paid by RT.

[Quixote1818]

35. MSNBC's corporate payroll isn't much better nt

[whathehell]

36. I wouldn't go that far, but I think he's terrific. n/t.

[phylny]

32. Exactly. n/t

[SidDithers]

20. By giving exposure to Corsi, Thom helps to legitimize him...

Corsi and his ilk should be shunned by anyone claiming to be progressive.

Sid

[mikeysnot]

29. No TH does not legitimize corsi

corsi words are enough to discredit himself.

Know the propagandists and the provocateurs.

[mr_lebowski]

5. Is Thom kissing his ass or something? He's ALWAYS getting cons on for interviews on his shows ...

And is somewhat often disappointingly meek on refuting their BS, but that not always the case, I've also seen him stick it to some people pretty hard.

IOW him having Corsi on as a guest, and perhaps not refuting as strongly as you'd like ... is not different from a Thom show 10 years ago ...

[wcmagumba]

6. I haven't listened to

him for a couple of years...the RT connection and
his poor argumentative style mainly.

[NightWatcher]

7. Who knew a guy paid by RT (Putin) would want to stir shit up.

He should be kicked off of any "progressive" radio station. He cashed checks from the enemy in the war Russia has with the rest of the Free World.

[lunasun]

8. New CT book? Where is trumps brain heart and transparency maybe ? Doubtful

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

9. I normally cut away when he has these dicks on. But I subjected myself to it and

the caller right after, a former Alex Jones bot. Really broke down why he was drawn into that moronic mentality back in the day and broke free. That was a good phone call.

[Demsrule86]

11. It still gives Corsi another outlet to let the crazy out.

[Demsrule86]

10. I never listen anymore...and am considering canceling Sirius as they also have the Young Turks.

I am very disappointed in Tom Hartmann. There are so many outlets for the likes of Corsi... I just am not convinced some who say they are on our side really are. I want to like Tom, he is a brilliant man.

[mountain grammy]

21. Sirius has a lot of channels

and some excellent programs.

[Demsrule86]

22. They don't have that much progressive radio...they have Hartman whom I don't like...I like all the

others on weekdays except young turks. They have way more conservative channels.

[mountain grammy]

23. I find plenty to listen to

Stephanie Miller, Michael Signorelli, Insight, Fuglesang, Pete Dominick and Star Talk and, Urban View's Joe Madison and Karen Hunter, AM Joy on the weekends, and more. I'm a radio fan, Sirius has it all. Music too!

[shanny]

12. Was it also the first?

Because Thom always has the opposition on, he never calls them stupid and he always makes them look that way.

[GusBob]

13. Did you really throw up?

wow!

[eleny]

14. So you missed his analysis of Corsi

That being that Corsi's book is a setup of memes for when Trump is nailed by Mueller. He related it back to Corsi's past books being setups to bring down John Kerry's candidacy and an attempt to bring down Obama's presidency.

The good thing about these interviews is that they're limited in time. Hartmann gives way more time to the left wing. An example is Rep. Mark Pocan of Oregon who gets at least a full hour each week.

[NCTraveler]

15. A swiftboater? Are you kidding?

Just the guy who deserves a platform.

Thankfully he went on a show with a very low platform.

[Sparko55]

16. Wanted to throw up - but saved my car

Thom Hartmann likes to portray himself as the "smartest man in the room". I used to enjoy listening to him, but when he went over to RT, agreed, it was a bridge too far. And today it lead me to listen and then change channels, dropping 2nd vehicle in Wisconsin from Sirius (I'm selling it), looking at just downloading podcasts for favs like Stephanie Miller or Randi Rhodes and listening through my car radio when I have to drive. This absurd notion that "deplorables" have valid points of view is beyond the pale. You need to call out the lies, the fabrications, the obfuscation of "points of view" when and where they happen. Otherwise, you condone the abhorrent behavior. You can see how the Republithugs all have NRA shock collars on at both the federal and state levels. It's like the old magic fencing for your dog - they stray out of the boundaries they get a shock. The news media in an attempt to paint themselves as balanced and giving time for other voices, doesn't know when to call out the lies, and the lying liars that tell the lies. In many civilized countries, the slop that is Faux News, Info Wars, etc. cannot broadcast, print, or disseminate lies - it's against those countries laws and comes with stiff penalties or loss of licenses. When a Fox look-a-like tried to bring their version of "the news" to Canada, they failed miserably in less than 2 years.

Last point, Marc Pocan is from Wisconsin and represents the Congressional district that includes Madison. Lived there, done that.

[phylny]

19. I listen to him and I continue to enjoy him.

He’s not generally a patsy for people with wild, libertarian, or Republican/conservative views. I learn how to talk to and rebut conservatives by listening to Thom do it.

Perhaps there’s lots of liberal radio where other people live but I live in a very red area and Sirius XM and the Progress channel is all I have. I’m not about to get rid of it anytime soon.

[GoCubsGo]

24. I turned it off when I heard he was bringing that POS onto his show.

I enjoy when he has Mark Pocan on his show, but most days, I can only take some much of it.

[Fullduplexxx]

25. Yea Me too but jerome corsi .. for thom to treat him with any credibility was just nauseating

[DFW]

26. You gotta be joking. Jerome Corsi for real?

We last used his image getting booted out of Kenya (which really happened) in the video below.
WTF is Corsi doing anywhere within 50 miles of Thom Hartmann?

This was ca. 2010

[Fullduplexxx]

27. Idk why thom had him on it was disqusting .. fortunately since

I will no longer listen to him i wont have to worry about hearing mr swiftboater again

[DinahMoeHum]

31. Corsi writes POS books like these. . .

[Fullduplexxx]

33. I just dont get why thom had him on .... smh

[VOX]

34. Is Hartmann still on the RT (Russian state approved) channel?

Because it is what it is— Russian state approved.

[RealityChik]

37. Thom no longer using RT studios

Has returned to Oregon. I understand he shares a studio with Stephanie Miller and other progressives. I wasn't too thrilled with the RT years, but I've been a Thom Hartmann fan since 2001. That's not going to change anytime soon.
