It’s a good interview and the sort of earned coverage that one expects from a credible campaign.
Great job, George!
I read a blog post mentioning Phillies in the Chronicle of Higher Education the other week, as well. The Chronicle is a national magazine for academics.

Not bad, George.
Cool.
It was a really good interview.
I agree.
Careful George, those type of interviews could get you the nomination. Good job!
Mr. Phillies, how much did you have to pay NECN to give you so much favorable airtime? And how many takes were required for you to get your message out so effectively?
Also, is that a $400 haircut?
Just kidding, of course. That’s a damn good segment.
Sorry, it’s a $10 haircut.
Roughly speaking, that’s about 20-30 minutes of work. The young lady you see with me also did all the camera work, so there was a certain amount of setup time and background testing between her firing questions at me.
