Title: Blather On, Bill
Product review: Being and Fair and Balanced kinda guy, I figured I'd give Bill a shot after having recently read Al Franken's entertaining, informative, and thoroughly researched "Lies and the Lying Liars..." While it's true that Bill actually has some decent insights in this book, it's mostly the kind of insight any adult picks up from their own life experience. His writing style is fine, workmanlike, but fine (I'm no great writer myself). As for the negatives of this book, well, Bill's a bit of a holier-than-thou type that really grates on you after a while. And I think he sounds a little bit paranoid too. Whereas Franken backed up EVERYTHING he wrote in his book, Bill's style, aside from his own life's narration, is one more of conjecture that suits his own world view. Given his talents as talking head, I expected a better book - at least more entertaining than this preachy diatribe. His politics are another story, but this is a book review...
