(rightwing commenter farrar has suggested a ‘boy-crush’ on the part of george..?.and that he would probably like four white bulls to be sacrificed to key..each year..
and i would like to add the context of georges’ other recent media appearances..and the contents of his mind..)
garth george was on the panel on nat-rad the other day..
part of the format of the show..is where the host asks the panellists ‘what’s on your mind..?’
(which you’d think guests would be prepared for..eh..?..this is the bit where ‘they earn their pay’..as it were..)
but for the second time in a row…george just blew the host off..
the time before he had answered with ‘hair’….as being what is on his mind..
thereby leaving host hanging..(’dead-air-alert!’..)
(he also on that occaison proclaimed loudly/proudly..
that since 9/11…he had watched read no other news..save for the hour and a half he spends each day reading the front section of the herald..(!)
(he must be quite a slow reader..eh..?..)
this time his answer was simple and to the point..
‘nothing’..
(he did a sorta mumbled follow-up about age meaning there was nothing in his head..)
this time the host was more prepared..and moved quickly to the other guest..
now..i tell you all this..’cos i am amazed by the proud/willfull ignorance of ‘what is happening’..of the george..
i found his dropping the nat-rad host in the water..twice in a row..’funny’ in a radio ‘do’s and don’ts kinda way..
and that we really must consider the source of this hymn of praise to key..
(and yep..!..’boy-crush’ is pretty much on the money..)
this evaluation/praise is coming from a mind..steeped (for many years) in (only) the front section of the herald..
and that contains..(in the words of the owner..’cos of age’..)..
..’nothing’…
