  • Joe Klein and journalism

    or what the rest of us call low hanging fruit. Today's media figures are not paid to be insightful, accurate or professional.

Klein is an idiot whose sense of self awareness and personal integrity is somewhere at the invertebrate level. In other words, he has everything it takes nowadays to be a media star.
