"From the ashen, haunted faces around me in the press gallery, and the conversations over hastily guzzled drinks before and after, I feel sure I wasn't the only person here who felt as if he were suffering from PTSD . . .

I applaud the Salon writer's smooth use of the first-person singular and matching verb ("as if he were . . ."), and even more that the verb is correctly put in the subjunctive mode, since "if" makes it a conditional clause. He must have gone to good schools. But . . . are all the press so utterly jihad-partisan-in-the-tank for the Democrats that a good speech made them pale?

Are there no more reporters? Just flacks?

. . . Ooops. Third-person singular. But you get it. It was a well-tuned sentence.

Are you talking about the writer of this piece, Laura Ingraham?

The last of the objective MSM reporters left the building around the same time as Elvis. Of all the talking heads today, it seems to me that maybe Dobbs and Stuart Varney are what remain of the kool-aid free. I like that dude from Capitalist Pigs too, what his name? Jonathon something.

There might be 1 real reporter left. The rest are Leftadists.

Yes, the Salon-head did us the favor of candidly describing the extent of left-wing MSM bias for Hillary and against Trump. Like the infamous Pauline Kael quote regarding Nixon, this writer can’t imagine that any journalist around him is not fervently anti-Trump. They are all biased hacks.
