In an incomparably revealing exchange with Tom Brokaw, the MSNBC star describes the role of our press.
  • Adjusting for McCain’s Woo

    The image of Dowd and her colleagues making snotty remarks about Hillary while huddled around a TV is so sickening, but it explains so much.

    Did yon see Michael Scherer’s response to his Swampland critics regarding “The GOP’s High School Debate?”: “Seriously, I think most of you are right about the McCain dilemma: He is great at wooing us reporters. We must admit this. We must adjust for it in our reporting. I am trying.”

    I thought it was intriguing that he said “us reporters” since there was no “reporting” in his article – just wishful thinking folded into fluffy personality analysis.
