A Memorial of those who died in 2007


























I only caught the last 15 minutes of this program and very much enjoyed what I did get to see. Will you be running this program again in the near future? I would love to see the entire show. If not, is it available for viewing online somewhere? I only recently started watching your show on a regular basis, when I discovered it by accident one night when I was tired of the usual late night shows. I find your programs informative, educational and entertaining. Thank you. Barb Kowalski
T-Bone, do not let Naomi Klein fans scare you. I know I commented on that program after I watched it--I was a bit agitated following an interview that seemed, by her body language and verbal responses, quite uncomfortable for her. I had never heard of Klein before viewing this episode. I do know that 99.9% of Charlie's shows are intellectually inspiring. I have repeatedly watched many monumental interviews on this new, great website--my reason for noticing your response!!
Charlie, Its been a nice with you. I only began following your program for the past two or so years closely, however whenever I come cross your program I stopped flicking my channel and stay with you since I was in high school. Watching your programs have given me the kind of wisdom I would not have found easily elsewhere. Thank you, for enriching my mind.
Well I know Charlie ain't dead yet, but now is as good a time as any to sing his praise and asses his liabilities. Mr Rose does provide just about the best talk show around. His shows are usually very informative and interesting. He doesn't provide a glitzy show, but a forum that is thoughtfull and intimate. Usually getting to the heart of the matter, Mr Rose does get more out of his guests than any other show of its kind that I can think of. However there have been times when Mr Rose has lost the opportunity to mine the depths and thoughts of some very talented and unique people. I can think of 3 occasions in the past few months where Mr Rose's eyes glaze over and he begins to look bored. At those times he either changes the subject or the interview was edited. Those occasions were during the interviews with Mr Calhoun, MS Joni Mitchell and MS Annie Lennox. Each of those indivduals are self reflective and have defined themselves and their circumstances and much is the pity that they were not allowed to share those insights in greater depth. The only other time that I can think that Mr Rose showed what maybe an unique American failing of intolerance and ignorance of other religions and cultures was during his interview of the Taliban leaders while in NYC in 2000. Mr Rose simply failed to listen to their story and understand their perspective. Instead he showed exasperation with them. Its not that you have to agree with them, but to understand what makes the other guy tick is half the battle, and Mr Rose's job is to bring that about.
Naomi Klein fans scare me. Such vicious loyalty and eagerness to be part of a movement. It's in the publics interest for Charlie to direct her back towards the topics. I wrote my comment on this page in part to observe how many Naomi Klein fans actually watch other Charlie rose shows... seeing as they point out aspects of Charlie's character I've never observed.
Excellent program this evening--the wise insights of people, past and present, nourish my spirit.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARLIE (12/5)! Thank you so much for your work. My life has been enriched deeply by getting to know the people on your broadcast intimately, as people, as opposed to caricatures of themselves. This has helped me to become more realistic with myself. To many more strong healthy, happy years together! Peter
I will be watching this program an hour from now. Just want to wish Charlie Rose HAPPY BIRTHDAY Saturday Jan. 5th.
A wonderful tribute to those who died and their wit and wisdom keep on giving in this program. Nicely edited. A keeper. Thank you Charlie and staff. (Almost missed it because, as usual WNET bumps Charlie. Fortunately WHYY ran it at the normal time.)
I have so enjoyed this evening's program - will you be rerunning it in the future? I would like my 80 year old father to see it also?
