Zakaria - usually spot on in performance, and world/USA news and history - uncharacteristically looked I’ll and was tripping over words throughout his show.

This guy is remarkably smart, well read, well sourced, and civil. Usually unruffled.

Hope everything is alright with his health. Today he’s interviewing Pakistan’s prime Minister Kahn. One of the best interviewers on CNN or any legit news outfit.

Of course he is. You have to be remarkably well-read to plagiarize at least 12 different times (one of which he was suspended for a month over).

Duh. Tell us something we don’t know, bmw.

I notice it hasn’t destroyed his mojo. Observing, learning, thinking, traveling, writing, speaking, interviewing, publishing, appearing on all platforms, hosting a TV show that carries his name.

He’s objective. Will praise or find fault no matter the person, party, policy, president, country or situation. A way of working in journalism that is rare these days.

Sorry he’s not perfect like you, bmw. Or the predictable propaganda peddlers who keep your comfort zone cozy.
