After Buckley appeared on his show, Jack Paar told the TV audience that Buckley had "no humanity." Buckley described David Susskind as the most deserving candidate for the "title of Mr. Eleanor Roosevelt." Susskind retaliated on camera by ridiculing Buckley's mannerisms and calling them "symptoms of psychotic paranoia."
