They say that Hugh Hewitt is almost as good as Al Franken. I’m not sure that I agree though, but to each his own.

It’s true!! Look at Hugh’s clamp teeth and try NOT to see Stephen King.

That is to say, those are the qualities of Silverman’s voice, not Caplis. Sorry for the oversight.

Here in Denver there is a much better option on talk radio with Caplis & Silverman on KHOW. olympian2008 on March 28, 2008 at 7:10 PM

You have got to be kidding. Dan's okay, if he could at least modulate his voice above a monotone on occasion. But regardless of his commentary or analysis, shouldn't someone in daily drive-time radio at least have a voice one would want to listen to and not something that sounds like he downs a daily Comet cocktail mixed up by Josephine the Plumber with a 3M Sandpaper chaser with his cheeks stuffed with Kraft Marshmallows?? Carry on.

It’s not a photoshop. Hugh lost a bet with me and had to wear the Steelers hat at the Minnesota State Fair. He’s a true Browns fan, which is to say, he’s a masochist.

Any Cub fans here? LOL

Hey Ed! I resemble that remark!

Hugh is a good soul, if a bit of a blowhard.

I think if you love Savage, you will tolerate Hewitt. (Or, vice versa.)

I, for one, love Savage.

Nonetheless, I confess that I was listening to Hewitt while typing this.

Hey, Hugh’s a Stillers fan…

Good man.

Maverick has to be the best modern version of a classic series ever.

- The Cat

P.S. And having the original actor in more than a cameo and making it work. . awesomer

Townhall.com has Hugh’s podcasts under their audio section. Since I’ve been catching Ed’s show, I ended up at Townhall and have been catching other shows I don’t get up here in Canada. Hugh puts on a good show.

I don’t think we get Hewitt…I’ll have to check that at some point. doubleplusundead on March 28, 2008 at 6:42 PM

You can always go to here and click on Hugh Hewitt at the top. Both he and Dennis Prager have their full shows up daily. However, since Hugh is on later, sometimes you have to wait til the next day to listen to his whole show.

That photoshop is rather shameful.

Hugh Hewitt is a great American, even if he happens to be from Oh-high-oh and always high on something.

Fair enough.

He is not to be taken seriously as a ~~reporter~~ political commentator. Okies?

As a Steeler Fan, I think Waxman should investigate him.

VolMagic on March 28, 2008 at 6:22 PM

Reporters, especially of the MSM persuasion, are not to be taken seriously as reporters anymore, either.

But as Jaibones just said, Hewitt’s a political commentator, one of the best.

Hugh Hewitt has become the poster child for being WRONG when it comes to political analysis. He was WRONG on his Mitt Romney predictions, WRONG on the 2006 mid-term elections, etc. Here in Denver there is a much better option on talk radio with Caplis & Silverman on KHOW.

Ed gets more face time on TV, radio, etc than anyone ever.

lorien1973 on March 28, 2008 at 6:28 PM

Sorry to quibble but, if Ed’s on radio, wouldn’t it be mouth time?

Ed,

Please tell Hugh to get on the damn radio here in Montana.

Hugh is not a reporter; he is a political commentator.
Jaibones on March 28, 2008 at 6:44 PM

Quite true. And this is not in anyway a slander on Hugh Hewitt.

I loved him in “Christmas Story”

Vol Magic,

Hugh is not a reporter; he is a political commentator. This is not unlike the difference between a football player and the stadium announcer.
