Political News Is Gossip

The political press is the nation’s back fence. Lord knows the press seems completely ignorant about how government functions.

And I don’t hold the journalists blameless. They’re adults; they’re responsible for their behavior. (And how much of a market? There’ll also be as much of a market for gossip as there ever was. Newspaper editors still blame technology for declining readership, not content. Except insofar as they need to appeal to imaginary Republicans.)
