Personally i think he has one of the best shows on MSM TV for sure. His show tackles important issues which for whatever reason many in MSM don't debate or have intelligent discussions about. The people he brings onto his panels are decent as well.

I also think he is a very calm, rational, well-informed, and intelligent individual. I wish CNN would kick "Rick's List" off the air and stick Zakaria on the news every day. The MSM needs more Zakaria's.

I agree. I enjoy watching his show on Sundays. One of his better shows was a couple of weeks ago, when he had on Paul Krugman and Niall Ferguson. They discussed government spending vs government austerity.

He has a more toned down approach to things, putting the 'tv drama / flare' aside and simply reporting the news. The interviews he has, are very well done. He has become part of my Sunday morning ritual now.

Wake up, grab a coffee, put on CNN for Zakaria, and then do about 30 kms on the bike.

It really is too bad more news is not reported like this.

I agree. He doesn't sensationalize. It's just info, no trying to entertain short attention spans.

He has a lot more substance than many other reporters out there. I've seen the one interview with that Imam from the UK. Several times shooting the Imam down and threatening to cut the interview short when questions were answered by other scenarios/questions.

With someone like Fareed, you tend to get better information when the drama is put aside. Which leads to more focus on the issue than how it's delivered.
