I was talking with a friend of mine last night about the curtis wright book and the conversations about terry gross on this list, and he told me that at one time gene simmons gave a completely outrageous interview on fresh air in which he insulted terry gross numerous times, stating that she would probably look sexier if she wore a skirt, and that perhaps if she did so it would be easier to tolerate her boorish questions. Is anyone else familiar with this anecdote?

She's probably the only talk show host anywhere to have Uri, Douglas, Byron, Wayne Kramer, and a bunch more anywhere NEAR the mainstream, and she's getting this kind of disrespect on this list? That's cheap. skip h
