20. I think the corporate media folks are WAY stressed about the fact
that they smell this in the wind, they know it's coming, they're DYING to talk about it (Matthews and Russert especially look stressed), but they can't, because of three things:

1. They didn't put the work into cultivating the multiple sources the way Leopold has;

2. Their corporate structure won't let them break news, or investigate, and has relegated them to being "news typists";

3. They see the train having left the station, without having been allowed to jump on yet.
