19. It's cocktail circuit punditry masquerading as journalism
Edited on Fri Dec-23-05 07:22 PM by Phoebe Loosinhouse
Mathews performs self-parody every night at 7:00 pm. He is a good personification of the Tim Russert quote - "Integrity is for paupers." I think Mathews like his Nantucket mansion and knows who butters his toast. I agree with the other poster who said Tim Russert was another very strong contender for this award. Hooray for Media Matters - they do matter themselves. They are smart and they have long memories and very good writers.

I hope that someday in the near future IWT (Independant World Television) will render mockingbird journalists like Mathews more irrelevant than they already are.
