I spent Wednesday afternoon in DC, taking part in a Senate hearing on the future of journalism, organized by John Kerry. I have to admit, my favorite moment of the hearing came when Sen. Maria Cantwell of Washington, during her questioning of the panel, said she likes reading HuffPost on her BlackBerry and held it up. You can check out my opening remarks here. Now it's off to New York, where I'll be guest hosting CNBC's Squawk Box Thursday morning 7 am - 9 am EDT. Among those I'll be interviewing: Eliot Spitzer, Elizabeth Warren, GM CFO Ray Young, Yale economics professor Robert Shiller, and economist Simon Johnson. [Update: I just did the show and will post my impressions in a bit. In the meantime, you can check out some clips from the show here. I'd love to hear what you thought of the show.
