(Let me know how it works.)
These asses are a really good example of what I mocked earlier as the "it's being said" standard of journalists being lazy, sloppy, irresponsible, dishonest and, when it's Ms. Psaki they try it with, incredibly and repeatedly stupid. All she had to do to make this guy demonstrate he's incompetent and blitheringly so is to ask him to identify who he alleged to be paraphrasing.
The First Amendment rulings of the past sixty years have not only made the press more dishonest, it's made them stupider and lazier. Though TV was bound to have that effect without requirements to prevent that.
I remember reading, decades ago, a critique of the WHPC. All they do is hang out waiting for the daily briefing, rather like birds in a nest waiting to be fed. The criticism pointed out the reporters could walk out to the sidewalk outside and talk to people from around the country, and get a great deal more useful information.
ReplyDeleteIt’s amazing how many tweets I see from journalists complaining because Biden won’t answer enough of their questions. I don’t find myself losing any sleep over it.
The link worked perfectly. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGlad to know about it, thank you for telling me.
