Bill Maher on CNN: Liking the unlikeable

I don’t like CNN’s move towards non-news programming.  But I gotta say I enjoyed Bill Maher’s debut on CNN on Saturday night. The Dana Carvey segment was hilarious (though he needs to work a bit more on the Musk imitation). The Ezra Klein and Andrew Sullivan segment was informative and fun (though Sullivan proved again he can be righteously insufferable). … Because I don’t get HBO/Max, I haven’t watched Real Time with Bill Maher in years. I knew he had moved to the political center of late. But I didn’t realize how decisively he had moved to the center. As a centrist, I loved it. It was classic confirmation viewing, I guess..
