F*&k Balance
I loved this. LOVED it. Because it's about time that journalists (there aren't many left, especially on TV, but they're out there) started jettisoning this nonsensical "balance" policy that respects the most idiotic, baseless bloviations of the Right Wing Shitbag contingent. Smart, journalists of any political stripe should be smacking down anybody who comes into their arena spewing brainless talking points instead of genuine knowledge and insight, regardless which side of the aisle they're on. Fortunately, most of those people come from the right.
Matthews enjoyed this. He knew James wouldn't know Neville Chamberlain from Richard Chamberlain, and he loved trapping him and watching him sputter in a wonderfully Glenn Beck/Michael Savage manner. James makes Ann Coulter look like Doris Kearns Goodwin.
Beautiful stuff.
