However, I feel like over the years he's calmed down his approach a bit. He still plays devil's advocate a bit, which is fair and comes with the territory, but he does a better job of taking a more reasoned and balanced approach IMO.

Francis today is a much better journalist than Francis 20 years ago. I always appreciate when people show they are capable of growth and being better. So kudos to him for that.

Agreed on all accounts.
