Minor rant - John Roberts (CNN) cheap shot on Pelosi -
Caught the opener for his program. Used a 2 second sound bite from Speaker Pelosi to ramble on about some lack of humility or introspection on her part. Journalism used to involve a little more direct sourcing and less pontificating. You'd think cable outlets would relish the opportunity, since they're 24/7. Turned it off and moved on... a good reminder to self - read the news, the op-eds. Don't get it from cable outlets unless it's some breaking event.

(disclaimer) I regularly watch Fareed Zakariah Sun. mornings, his show is great.

1. I think he's getting warmed up for his move to Fox News

2. Yeah. Appropriate. It was a shoddy piece.
