During the question-and-answer session that followed his speech, Westin said he believes that his warning “parallels” that of Jon Stewart to Tucker Carlson and Paul Begala on an October 15 episode of CNN’s Crossfire—that there’s just too much spin and not enough reporting...
...when the competition's biggest star is accused of abusive sex talk involving a fibrous sponge (see story, this page), you've had a good week. That was before CNN's Crossfire invited on JON STEWART, below left, of Comedy Central's The Daily Show.
