What I learned from the media-Part 1

In the past two days, I've learned that the media can spend more time giving learned answers to something they know nothing about. In this case, the so-called "plamegate" investigation. They don't know what the prosecutor will do since he has refused to indulge in the Washington tradition of leaking. Undeterred, as usual, by the facts, every news program is devoted to uninformed speculation. Chris Matthews takes the prize. He seemingly devoted the entirety of Hardball on Tuesday summing up what he knows about plamgate. Which is nothing, yet he managed to cram no information into an hour of programming. Absolutely amazing.
