[edit] Criticism
Critics of Charles view him as a left-leaning, liberal talk show host who only claims to be "independent". They also claim his positions invariably match those of other liberal talk show hosts and liberal ideology. Critics of Goyette also note that his constant pandering to the left and "Bush Bashing" are clear evidence of his political affiliation. They question who refers to Goyette as "independent" (other than himself).
