Margaret Brennan is an excellent unbiased reporter. Who asks intelligent timely tough questions of both sides of the aisle. She is well informed on the topics and as in all her reports on Face the nation, from the State department and in commentary during elections does an excellent job. This podcasts is more of her excellence.

Margaret excels with all of her reporting assignments and show hosting responsibilities. Facing Forward podcasts are a wonderful platform to delve deeper into a subject and once again Margaret nails it. She is the perfect fit for the Face the Nation brand. I expect we will see Margaret in her current role for a long time unless Norah O’Donnell decides to move on to something else.
