 The McLaughlin Group   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
John McLaughlin is an egomaniacal right-wing zealot frothing with hate and vitriol for no better reason than to hear the sound of his own lips flapping.
McLaughlin scuttled his own show when he became far too loud and domineering, and once his panel was replaced by Clinton lackey Eleanor Clift and the three bores, the show lost whatever redeeming qualities it once had.
Anyhoo, McLaughlin Group is a pretty good show in my opinion for what it is and it shouldn't be judged as either good or bad depending on whether you personally agree/disagree with the viewpoints expressed by McLaughlin or the panelists.

 NO QUARTER: John McLaughlin Dazed and Confused
Having watched former Deputy CIA Director John Mclaughlin spend the day trying to back and fill for President Bush's decision to circumvent the FISA Court procedure (which occurred during Mclaughlin's tenure), we begin to understand why the CIA declined so badly under his watch.
Mclaughlin argues, as always, in a calm, polite voice--the quintessential bureaucrat--that the threat is new and terrorists move too quick.
On reflection, John Mclaughlin may well be in the throws of a mild panic concerning some forced acquiescence as it relates to illegal domestic surveillance- - so it would be in his interest to quell any serious inquiry.

"The McLaughlin Group" also was instrumental in establishing the now-widespread practice of "buckraking," whereby TV pundits take their show on the paid lecture circuit and for substantial fees reenact their TV roles, playing themselves before industry and trade associations looking for the Washington "inside scoop" or after-dinner levity.
McLaughlin had hoped to launch a conservative-slanted talk show since the mid-1970s, after raising his profile in TV appearances defending the Nixon administration and hosting a local Washington talk show with Robert Novak.
McLaughlin expanded his visibility with the GE-sponsored "One on One" syndicated interview show, and he was given a third show on CNBC when that cable network was established by GE in the 1990s.

The media spectrum was expanded to include the Far Right in the 1970s; yet now, a combination of the conservative biases of media executives, commercial market forces, and a ready stock of warm bodies from the subsidized right-wing message machinery was conspiring to narrow the spectrum of opinion again, only this time in reverse.
At its high point, the syndicated "McLaughlin Group," which airs on NBC and PBS affiliates nationally, had 3.5 million viewers, far more than the top-rated FOX News Channel opinion shows today.
