The Pundit Generation #2
On April 30th of this year, I wrote a blog on the
"Pundits" being used by the 24/7 TV media......
I said that they were a new class of people just
making an extra buck and that they did not
know anything, of which they spoke.......
Well today Politico.com has a three page story
confirming my earlier opinion......Case in point,
a speech writer for a now retired Senator has
a TV title of "strategist".....If that word is
not used then you are an "analyst".....
Years ago the public received NEWS......Today
they are receiving DRIBBLE.......Pumps
