"debate me, bro" crowds and "the angry conservative" format, from what I gather, so Hasan was dialed into that mode very well. Once he realized he was on hostile grounds, I don't think he had an option. And it worked. Towards the end of almost every segment, you can see that people are not rushing to that chair as much any more.
