Demagogue

As Frederick reported that Kevin Drum had reported that....well, let's just say that I was indeed impressed that at least a few of the usual suspects in the press corpse started acting like--what are those things called--oh, yeah, reporters.

They still haven't asked the big, simple, critical question that's been unasked for the past three weeks, though. Rather than rant about it again (though I'm not promising not to start frothing again later), I'll point you to a much more thorough and less hyperventilating article on journalistic somnambulance that Eugene put me onto in the comments.
