What a relief and a pleasure to see Lisa Desjardins moderating Washington Week in Review on November 24, 2023! Up until the most recent appointment, all the hosts I've ever seen on the program, from Paul Duke onward, have been both warm and engaging, while also always keeping the focus on the panelists. In short, they never seemed to be modeling themselves on late-night talk-show hosts. Please, enough with the performative bantering!
