That TOTALLY irked me. As a kid, I was constantly getting pissed off when adults acted patronizingly towards me just because I said something smart. "Oh how cute! You're just so SMART, aren't you!" Drove me nuts. And it makes me angry when I see it happen to kids now. What a cool kid! I also like the way his father handled the whole thing. Totally understanding and respectful of his child's opinions and motives, yet also encouraging his child to act in a civilized manner towards other people (just because you WANT to tell someone to jump off a bridge, doesn't mean you necessarily SHOULD!). Now that's classy parenting. Has the anchor seriously never heard the term "gaywad?" Or was he just trying to see what Will would say? @Chelseawantsout: I KNOW. That TOTALLY irked me.

I saw this! The interviewer was pissing me off through the whole interview, actually. Condescending asshole. "Haha, you're a child and therefore it's amusing when you say smart things! You have opinions about the world? That's even more amusing!" CaffeineAddict, in my experience many people who work with children operate under the assumption that kids are just waiting for the right moment, the slightest lapse in adult vigilance, to run amok and cause trouble. It sickens me. Nerds 2^2 ever. Oh! I saw this! The interviewer was pissing me off through the whole interview, actually.

Although, to be fair, I think I decided in around second grade not to say the pledge of allegiance for similar reasons, and I never got on CNN. I think people underestimate the intelligence of kids, which makes them overly surprised when ten-year-olds exert any kind of intelligence or independent thoughts. This kid is awesome.
