On cspan. Here are a few of the comments we have received from viewers. Watched your show this morning on Domestic Violence and was very disappointed with what i saw and heard. Guest were weak and ineffectual and it seemed the allpro of colors were a bunch of whiny men. One woman is beaten every 15 seconds in this country by a husband or partner.
