Today's NYT looks at Karl Rove's new role as multi-media bloviator. It hits many of the expected notes, including the question of whether his advice to the McCain campaign qualifies him as an "adviser."
More broadly the piece uses Rove as the illustrative example of a trend in journalism...

The good senator from Illinois and the Great Black and White Hope for America Barack Obama has been absurdly and ridiculously raked through the coals because of "guilt by association" with his former pastor, Jeremiah Wright. I'm not going to dignify that nationally destructive feeding frenzy with any statement except...

The Democrats must be kicking themselves. They're facing a Republican opponent in November who seems beatable, yet they can't settle on their own contender. Their convention isn't until August 25, so four more months of uncertainty could be on the way. Is there any way to cut the process short?...

In his column today, Howard Kurtz takes me on over my post on the self-loathing liberal media -- and completely misses the point:
Here's what Arianna isn't telling you. When Newsweek hired Rove, the magazine also hired Markos Moulitsas. Kristol's once-a-week column is balanced on the Times op-ed...
