FAREED ZAKARIA, HOST: This is GPS, the GLOBAL PUBLIC SQUARE.
When being briefed by academics from the London School of Economics, Queen Elizabeth II asked a simple question: Why did nobody notice it?
UH, Fareed, better way to say that is "WHY DIDN'T ANYBODY NOTICE IT?" SPEAK ENGLISH MAN!
Fareed Zakaria is a good man, with good intentions but he is now part of the problem in the USA. When he had Spitzer on his GPS show this week, Fareed never said the real words that define what Spitz did wrong. Fareed and ES just spoke of some general vague thing he did wrong, they did not say that Spitz engaged in adultery, that he paid a sex worker for her services in a high-class hooker op, that he showed made judgement etc.....
No, Fareed by not saying what Spitz really did wrong, without saying the words on air, means that Fareed is also not using proper judgment or moral reasoning and pretending all is okay with adultery and paying sex workers on the sly and hoping not to get caught, and this is the same spin they use on the economy. Now Fareed has become truly American: he is also dissembling in public on his show and it lowers his truth meter ratings. Shame on you, Fareed Zakaria....
RE: In his first television interview since being forced from office in a prostitution scandal, former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer talked with CNN about his personal failings, the AIG bailout and President Obama's handling of the economy.
In a wide-ranging discussion, Spitzer told CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS" that he thinks he still has a duty to speak about issues like million-dollar bonuses to American International Group executives, but that he comments on the issues "with full awareness and heaviness of heart about what I did."
"I would say to [critics] that I never held myself out as being anything other than human," he said in the interview, which airs Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. "I have flaws as we all do, arguably. I failed in a very important way in my personal life. [FAILED AT WHAT? WHAT DID HE DO? THEY NEVER SAY IT ON AIR.] And I have paid a price for that." "These are issues that I feel deeply about," he said. "But I am where I am because of my own conduct. [WHAT WAS THAT CONDUCT, ELIOT? SPELL IT OUT ON AIR AND DON"T HIDE BEHIND VAGUE GENERALITIES. FAREED IS GUILTY HERE TOO. THIS IS WHY AMERCA IS IN BAD SHAPE, PEOPLE USE LANGUAGE TO HIDE THINGS. TALK STRAIGHT, FAREED. YOU ARE BECOMING AN UGLY AMERICAN NOW. SHEESH. AND I SAY THIS AS A FRIEND. I LIKE YOU. BUT YOU ARE PLAYING UP THE RICH AND FAMOUS AND VIPs, MAYBE YOU ARE IN THEIR CLUB OR WANT TO BE. THIS IS WHAT OFTEN HAPPENS TO IMMIGRANTS TO THE USA. SIGH. ] And as I say, I make no excuses."
AND, Fareed opened his show with very poor grammmer. He said "WHY DID NOBODY SEE THIS?" but he should have said WHY DIDN't ANYBODY SEE THIS COMING?"
Okay, he was quoting the UK Queen. It is still the wrong choice of words. Fareed, you failed the test this week. wake up, man!

FAREED ZAKARIA, HOST: This is GPS, the GLOBAL PUBLIC SQUARE. Welcome to all of you in the United States and around the world. I'm Fareed Zakaria.
This has been another week of outrage over Wall Street. But mixed in with the outrage, there continues to be a bewilderment about how these problems in the financial industry could have been piling up without warning.
