And I agree with him 100%!!!
The increasingly turned-off McGregor replied blankly, "Well, that's just two men kissing, and then struggled to comprehend the blatant small mindedness of the supposed television professional.It's uh, in this age, in 2010, he stammered, before continuing, it's extraordinary that it's still an object of humor."

I just love Ewan's attitude and how he shoots George's childish comments down.

Just one more reason why I love this man.
You can kiss me, Ewan. I won't laugh.
Go Ewan! George is being pretty obnoxious during the whole interview. When Ewan makes a comment about how he doesn't read or enjoy political memoirs George gets all huffy because he's written one. I didn't realize his ego had gotten so big. lol

I agree in this case; Ewan was talking about kissing Jim Carrey and, as we all know, there is NOTHING funny about Jim Carrey.
^^^^^Now that's funny!^^^^^
George is still overcompensating for the gay rumors, I suppose.

Yeah, I think George is just jealous. On another note, holy crap...Ewan McGregor looks fantastic.
Loved the way McGregor deflected ALL of that ferretty Stephanopoulous sensationalistic bullsh*t.
Also, exactly what sort of response was GS looking for? An "Oh, I'm not gay!"? A kiss?
That was a real grade-school moment for George.
Seriously. What is he, 12?
George is...

It's repulsive but really no worse than a million other "Kiss" questions. I saw Regis quizzing Michelle Williams on what it was like to kiss Leo DiCaprio last week. It was just as repellent.
I lost all respect for him as a journalist when he let Rudy's "there were no terror attacks on the US during Bush's watch" comment slide.
I would happily watch Ewan kiss ANYONE all day long. Love that man.

Please remember that Goerge comes from a strict Greek Orthodox background. If I'm not mistaken, he's an ordained priest--as is Ernie Anastos.

Why in the world should we have to remember this? He wasn't practicing his Orthodoxy, he was supposedly practicing journalism in that interview. And he failed miserably.
Maybe he'd be better off doing interviews on the 700 Club than on a network news outlet.
I LOVE his reaction! He basically said, "What is what? You're a moron." Love him.
"I think George is just jealous."
"I didn't realize his ego had gotten so big."
OK - I'm going for the obvious cliche - but maybe relative sizes are another reason why Mr Stephanopoulous is jealous.
who is george?
He was that guy sketching in the park on Sunday.
oh ok
