I watched his show twice, and didn't care for it. I think he's a great comedian, and should stick to that. He does fairly wall on Bill Maher's show as a guest and comedian, but he seems in a bit over his head for a purely political show. I also found him to seem a bit homophobic in one of the shows I watched, when he had a gay guest.
There's no shame in doing what you do best - in DL's case, making people laugh. He should stick with it.

People jump straight to race on things everytime....geez!! I think he's doing an excelent job. Its just that some uptight people don't understand him!!! I hope and pray they have more people of color on news shows since you wanna talk race!!!!

just in case you are wondering....I am not white.
So how do you explain putting someone like DL on CNN? He has no experience in political news and he shows it on his show. Like someone said, they should have stuck him on the Comedy channel.
And where have you been? In the caves with Bin Laden? There are plenty "people of color" on news shows.
I'm guessing he got a show because somebody on the CNN staff thought there was a market for it. I mean the concept of a comedian reporting the news isn't exactly a new idea....it's just new to CNN. I'm guessing CNN chose DL because all the good comedians were busy.
