Interesting factoid from the interview: there are seven million bands on myspace.

Wow, that's a joke right? I mean, she's no Ann Coulter...

She's the anti coulter. Not just left of Lennon, but left of Lenin
Believe it or not bias doesn't just exist on the right, it is on the left as well. Bias is a good thing, but ridiculous, facts be damned, full on propaganda is something else entirely and has no place in a news organization.

In the same way that Chasey Lain "just" humps people I guess
The same way Rosie O Donell "just" interviews people
The same way Bill O'Rielly "just" interviews people, etc...

Bill O'Reilly doesn't interview people
You can;t turn on O'Reilly for 5 minutes without him saying something a) blatantly untrue, and b) blatantly partisan and agenda driven
no one can reasonably say that about Terry Gross
you meant o tell me that in an interview with, say, Ray Davies, her allegedly "liberal bias" is unmistakably clear?
O'Reilly is ALL about propaganda.
Terry Gross may have her point of view in political discussions, but she's not there to be a left wing propaganda channel.
UNLIKE O'Reilly or Coulter.
Their disinformation role is their SOLE purpose.
it's their job description.

Compare her treatment of Michael Moore (who many on the moderate "clinton left" would consider extreme) with her treatment of dole who many would consider wishy washy around the middle. You would have thought she was talking to Gingrich

The weird thing about her is that she refuses to interview someone face to face. They CANNOT be in the room with her - only by a remote link. They never tell you this and it SOUNDS like they are together, but they're not.
I think she does an "ok minus" job of reviewing subjects and people. But it's very surface-level and superficial, which is great for the mass public when learning of something new, but not the best way to do something.
Relax and float downstream...
