If we don't have an informed electorate we don't have a democracy. So I don't care how people get the information, as long as they get it. I'm just doing it my particular way and I feel lucky I can do it the way I want to do it.

I'm in the civil discourse business. I think it takes all kinds. And more power to everybody.
