Call me crazy, but I deem Katie Couric's behavior, and the harsh treatment by Charlie Gibson, an egregious abuse of the public's trust and an affront to professional journalists everywhere. Fire them both!

Ronald Reagan governed over high unemployment numbers, and he was covered by a hyper-critical media. Yet today, most TV news outlets are giving President Obama a free pass on equally bleak statistics.

Even though it's the summer, when other networks tune out behind reruns, ABC refuses to take a vacation from its marketing strategies, efforts and overall game-plan.

Republican politicians all seem to be trying their hand at historic re-creationism to transform both the history and future of the Republican party into their own image.

Wow. I just watched GW's first "exit interview" with Charles Gibson on ABC. Was this man actually elected President of the United States twice? (Okay ...

He did the strangest thing last night: He turned the TV off. There he was, still in the early part of the evening, with another hour or two of pol...

I don't want someone who's "just like me" to be Vice President of the United States, any more than I'd want somebody who's "just like me" to be my dentist, or my heart surgeon, or my air-traffic controller.

The debate got away from Gwen Ifill, and Sarah Palin got away with passing off folksy platitudes as substitutes for substance.
John Neffinger | Posted 01.28.2009 | Politics
What if, midway through, Palin is doing okay, or better than okay? If you're Joe Biden, are you going to just sit there and let her play you to a draw - or beat you? On the biggest stage Biden has ever been on, is he going to let himself get shown up by someone everybody knows is an idiot? Or does Biden get agitated, and start looking for opportunities to attack, to pin Palin down, to put her in her place? If Biden stops playing it safe, all bets are off. He might be brilliant, but things might also go horribly wrong.

Charlie Gibson is shaking up the evening news ratings race — and apparently without my help. This week, "ABC World News" pulled in the most tota...

Charlie Gibson just really isn't all that knowable outside his little 6:30 TV window, but four little words can change that, and catapult Gibson back to ratings glory: Dancing. With. The. Stars.

Yeah, yeah, yeah - we're supposed to lay off her now, we're not supposed to draw any more attention to her than she's already getting. Sorry, can't do it. I'm no quitter.

With the GOP's Darth Vader, Karl Rove, as their Shaman and strategic guru, McPalin is trying to convince voters that it is they, not the Democrats, who are the real agents of change.
Steven Waldman | Posted 10.13.2008 | Politics
The Republicans are guilty of one case after another of egregiously ripping Obama words out of context. This time it's Palin's words that have been taken out of context.

McCain's lack of judgment in choosing a running mate should weigh heavily on the minds of every American who goes to the poll in November.

In her words, "we've got to keep an eye on Russia." And how! What a statement to make, and on 9/11, to boot!

We all thought that first interview was going to be with ABC's Charles Gibson. Little did we know how wrong we were.
