good bye Charlie... it's a sad fact that even long-lasting relationships must sometimes come to an end. You left a very bad taste in my mouth... I wanted to spit it out. Unfortunately, there was a TV screen in the way.

Saw parts of the show today. Rose made an idiot out of himself trying make Arianna appear to say something she didn't, only to be stopped mid-babble and corrected. He sounded and acted more like O'Reilly and his brethren. Definitely not a show for his highlights.

I'm sorry, Arianna, but you should stick to The Today Show because this appearance did you no favors. Every time you tried to get a Clinton dig in, he proved how little you know of the issues. And the biggest coup I can remember this site having is breaking the "bitter" story--undermining your own candidate. Good job.

"I'm sorry...aren't you in the media?" Ha ha!

Did Arianna get a word in edgewise?? looks like she did...Charlie must be reading the Huffington Post and how his self-absorbed pontifications bore the hell out of a lot of people.

I saw this interview this afternoon and was so stunned by Charlie Rose I could hardly watch it to the end. He interrupted Ariana continuously to the point where It was if it was all about his opinion, and NOTHING else. He was rude and arrogant and, in my book, it was reprehensible behavior. Even if one did not agree with the thoughts Arianna was attempting to express, it was agitating. The remarkable thing is that it was a perfect example of a point Arianna was trying to make about the media today. He clearly did not agree with what she had to say so the result was an interview conducted in an extremely biased manner.
This showed me one more place I choose to give up as a source of information. Even an interviewer who used to be easy for me to watch and who interviewed many interesting people has become impossible. I am getting down to the BBC only. How can this be?
The best part of watching this interview was observing Ariana Huffington come from a place of equanimity throughout the entire ordeal. She was polite and even seemed to keep her sense of humor. Remarkable!
After years, no more Charlie Rose for me.

Having seen it again for the 2nd time, I agree with you but I have seen him worse.
