What's worth remembering about Hume is that he got his start with Jack Anderson, of all people. This was back when Anderson was at his most populist and Hume shared the byline for awhile. In a sense, that may account for his willingness to both claim "objectivity", but also feel comfortable doing this outside the bounds of mainstream media. OTOH, he probably hasn't done anything resembling real journalism in a couple decades.
