Bush TV



So Tony Snow, who I must confess I enjoy watching on his many many many talk-show appearances, just accepted a job as a CNN correspondent, and it makes me wonder where journalists have gone. With Carl Rove on TV every day and now this, I am curious about the state of television news. It's interesting that we seem to trust the opinions of Washington insiders because they are thought to have more insight into the political world. But holy shit does that discount political journalism as it's own entity. I'm a little nervous about the amount of white housers relocating to cable news, and I think this really says something about the relationship between politics, media and probably rich people.
