Fashion Reporter Speaks for Old Media We
Publius Forum ^ | 08/23/09 | Warner Todd Huston

I have to admit up front that I don't give a flying fig about what anyone wears as long as it is appropriate to the setting. I mean, wearing flip flops in a visit to the White House is wrong, but wearing them on the beach is fine. Wearing shorts in front of a judge is disrespectful, but wearing them while bike riding is perfectly apropos. I am against t-shirts in Church, but, well, that’s the traditionalist in me. But, in general, I don't care that Michelle Obama's wardrobe is a bit, well, odd. I didn't care at all about the President's mom jeans, either. And if anyone judges by my own wardrobe, one would have to conclude that a fashion horse I'm not.

That being said, you must realize right off that 99 percent of what Amy Dufault, contributing writer to the Cape Cod Times had to say about the first couple's wardrobe in their visit to Martha's Vineyard was utterly meaningless to me. But her closing line is worth focusing on.

After spending several mind numbing paragraphs on what to and what not to wear and a turgid, slobbering section on how wonderful the writer thinks the angry Michelle is, we get to that ultimate line that seems to bespeak of the attitude of everyone in the sycophantic Old Media.

"This is the first time the first family will be on vacation, so we'll be watching everything they do and wear. I know I'll be watching."

Excuse me? What do you call, New York, Paris, Yellowstone, and the Grand Canyon? It seems like that is all this family does is go on vacation.
