Bravo.
Why is cable news generally so terrible in this country? This is exactly what it _could_ be.

It’s a matter of having good guests and letting them talk. Compare the comments Don made throughout the segment with what Bill O’Reilly would have been saying during the same segment. The network has the ability to frame it however they want.

This was the realest talk i’ve seen on mainstream news in a looooooooooooong time. Part of me can’t believe this is being talked about so candidly on a mass comminacations medium. Yay CNN for letting this air!

I knew there was a lot of racial tension since Obama got elected but as a black American I didn’t know much fear and anger some white Americans are currently feeling. It’s scary.
