I've dealt with the local equivalent and I would certified the local as an idiot. Haven't met Goss but not impressed by the show.
Haven't watched/heard/read Goss in a long time but always get a good laugh at picking 'em apart when someone leaves it on.
Usually the newspaper and radio show mechanics,... spend time pushing their 'shop', or a product, while scaring consumers into not doing a DIY thing.
He is no different than anyone else. He's saying what his employers are telling him to say,according to the specific agenda.
It's the same in politics,the politicians do what they are told by the people who pay the bills. It's fun to blame any specific person however only a fool believes they have an actual choice.
Did you know obamacare was originally drafted by the republicans and Romney was going to implement it if he was elected.
When a small group of people pull all the strings everyone under them does their dance. So in this case he's a shill however he isn't wrong. Most stuff under the hood today is beyond the grasp of most drivers. And for the most part he's historically been very good in helping motorists fix their cars themselves.
