SC gets a Good Review for a Change

This might make you smile even if you’re not from South Carolina.  Charlie Rose is interviewing Lionel Barber, Editor of the Financial Times, on the European Central Bank and the debt deal for Greece.

Near the end, Rose innocently asks what positive American stories might get the Times’ attention and Barber singles out South Carolina.  The giggle comes when Rose, whose progressive instincts are offended by any praise for a red state, tries to explain away Barber’s example.  Take a listen.

Note:  the entire 15 minute interview should be interesting to anyone who cares about the euro problems but the SC bit is only a moment late in the interview.  If you want just that, wait for the piece to fully cue and then move the slider to 11:48.
