16. Anyone else catch Whorowitz on "Bullshit?"

Not the usual bullshit, of which he is full. But the Penn & Teller show "Bullshit" on Showtime.

That's the episode that turned me right off the show. I had watched every episode, with some major eye-rolling when the Libertarian propaganda showed up. But after that one I pretty much gave up.

The topic was "Liberal Indoctrination In Colleges" and Whorowitz was at his absolute slimiest.

The show was completely one-sided, with the looniest examples of liberal "indoctrination" carefully cherry-picked.

And naturally, no mention of conservative schools like Claremont, Pepperdine or good old Bob Jones University.
