A ‘Very Dark Force in TV News’
Novak would have LOVED that...
Never heard of David Zurawik.
I suppose that’s why he wrote this article.
Novak was a journalist, something Olbermann, Matthews, Stephenopoulos, and a host of other people can never be.
Mr. Noname Reviewer will be bagging groceries within 5 years, at the rate his employer is bleeding readers and cash. The only thing he’ll then be known for, is how often he says “Paper or plastic?”.
i have a lot to say about novak for very different reasons but for 24 hours.....give him RIP
Appropriate he works in the Peoples Republic of Maryland!
How dare he offer different opinions! That is so evil.
I don't think so. It's just that he was on the other side of the the Zulawiks of the world. So much of the time, when people slam someone else, it's not because of their target's personal qualities or actions, but simply because he's on the other side of the fence.
contemptible.
Novak was conservative, a sin for which there is no forgiveness by leftists like this guy.
In other words, if we don’t bend over and agtee with you sorry liberal ass, we’re the devil. Shades of Herbert Marcuse.
"The fact is that Novak, as he would disclose in his autobiography, actually admired very few politicians. He wrote that he found the first politicians he covered less impressive than the athletic coaches he had covered as a young reporter an impression of the political class that did not change appreciably in a half-century of sustained contact.'"
RIP my favorite curmudgeon!!!!! You will be missed
Sad that it’s coming from Jack Germond’s former paper. I disagreed with both Novak and Germond on various issues, but at least they were actual journalists, unlike Mr. Zurawik.
I always roll my eyes, and I bet Novak and Germond did too at some point, when the topic of the news being reported is the news itself. “Flash - Newspaper runs column about TV cable news.” That’s fark, not news!
This jackass is so stupid that he doesn't understand that, in penning this detestable smear, he himself is engaging in the same thing that he is accusing Robert Novak of. Oh, I forgot. It's acceptable journalism for a braindead leftist to smear people, especially their betters.
Robert Novak will be remembered and lauded as a terrific guy, a great journalist and a tough, hard-nosed reporter.
David Zurawik? Who?
As my grandfather was fond of saying in an earthy tone,
Mr. Zurawik couldn’t make a patch on Novak’s ass.
I didn’t agree all the time with Mr. Novak but I respected him as a true journalist, Something this dipwad knows nothing about.
RIP, Bob.
Novak was one of the moving forces for changing political shows to debate format, rather than a parade of liberals being nodded at by Charlie Rose types.
