If there's one thing that can unite right and left, it may very well be Mo Dowd. Just awful. I guess the NY Times knows what they're doing-- they can always count on her to bring on the hate-readers. Even with a paywall, we just can't help ourselves. She's just so stinky on all fronts.
I cannot stand Dowd! I'm not too crazy with the NYT either since they seem to be carrying water for the GOP these days (at least in parts of the paper). So very disappointing and scary.
I keep wondering when the mainstream media will wake up and realize they're reporting on their very doom when they lionize Republicans or buy into the GOP narrative about Democrats. But then I remember that so many of them are owned by a few billionaires.
And don't even get me started on the dearth of local news coverage, especially local governments. One local piece reprinted a press release from our county commissioner's court, interviewed 1 woman (who the reporter probably already knew), and that was it. No digging, no context, nothing. When I'm doing a better job reporting what's going on than people whose job it actually is, we're in deep trouble.
Thanks for the reminder about Dowd. I didn't even read her newest diatribe yet I'm still disgusted.
I miss Molly Ivins...have you ever read the blog Margaret and Helen? No holds barred - just the best!
