'Stomach-turning': MAGA Riot’s Confederate Flag Rebuked by Fran Lebowitz | MSNBC Summit Series

[AriMelber]

So, is Fran a pessimist or a realist?!

Again appreciate her time for the conversation — and let us know if you all have ideas for other people we should invite to the Summit Series!

[ingledoo]

Fran, I'm so glad you're on this Earth!

[corpesdiem]

A wonderful woman. Thank you for interviewing this honest unique individual x

[hayleyanna]

I adore this woman. She is certainly no phony. Straight talking, intelligent, witty, an observer and awake.

[rebahenderson]

Fran, straight no chaser. A refreshing conversation and interesting.

[hansklimstra]

Listening to this interview, I would like to comment that even if the truth hurts, I would rather hear that than being lied to.

[suzibarlow]

Fran is always a delight. I knew her mother and father. She sounds like her mother and delivers the punchline like her father. Good people. All of them.

[wgharrison]

Fran is amazing! One of the most truthful individuals in America. This is coming from a Canadian who lived in NYC for 10 years.

[beverlyvriesenga]

I love Fran I could listen to her all day she’s so unique. Great interview Ari.

[Britgirl]

I'm 63 years old and I found Fran Leibowitz by accident as recently as five years ago. I always find her fascinating to listen to. This was a good interview - not too serious, quite varied of subjects, and Ari's reverence for her was palpable. She is definitely a product of her time, and yet she is also very aware of the world around her today. As I say, fascinating! I didn't want it to end. Thank you for putting this on YouTube.

[daveogarf]

LOVE YOU, Fran Lebowitz! Your honesty and candor are so refreshing in this world of purposeful LYING!

[bluezinnia]

Ahh Fran Lebowitz...she's a grand philosopher, and in so many ways...I just love her! She's honest with her opinions, and she could be right! Let's just say she has balls to speak truth to power! She's a beloved icon from my era.

[rudyspective]

I've watched many interviews of Fran Lebowitz and I find that many of the questions addressed to her were a bit redundant, but Ari asked intelligent questions, well thought out, and a few were even I might describe as challenging. Of course Fran being the woman that she is answered eloquently. Very entertaining interview. Great job Ari, and thank you Fran!

[lynnyhen]

Ari, I'm impressed, Fran really opened up to you, great conversation!

[roberttrepagnier]

Fran has always told it like a is. She is the coolest person ever.

[nicki]

When I tell you I admire and love Fran. I just do! She never disappoints! We have celebrated thinkers such as Noam Chomsky but I think Fran is just as bright and worth listening to.

[mnau]

Her matter of fact candor is always refreshing

[hansklimstra]

I always feel that whenever I listen to Fran's pronouncements that I am hearing 110 percent wisdom and truth--no holds barred!

[stephr]

“Being judge mental to me means I have standards” lol. Love it.

[michibean]

"...I'm not negative, I'm realistic." I say this all this time. I like her.
