When it comes to Progressive, liberal, political hacks masquerading as journalists, it goes without saying that Katie Couric, Keith Olbermann, Matt Lauer, David Gregory, and Chris Matthews are the worst of the species.
Their zombie-like devotion to President Obama is simply disgusting.
Equally appalling is their always-predictable and generally-shallow rants against conservatives in politics.

As bad as some of these media people are, David Broder is not much better.

What’s a journalistic “bore”? Is that a kind of drill?

Not sure what your point is or whether you read the article. The author uses Broder as an example of an Obama lapdog who is in bed rather than embedded. Broder is the worse kind of person calling himself a journalist.

Does anyone remember Couric wearing black on the Today Show the morning of the election being called for Bush after the recounts?
To: Clintons-B-Gone
These journalists, like David Broder, need to find an honest profession. Call themselves commentators, not reporters. The author is evidently unaware that David Broder is, in fact, a commentator.
People who write op-ed columns aren't reporters.

I see Matthews and Keith O. as political pundits who have a right to their opinions. Katie Curic on the other hand is supposed to be impartial and “some people might say” she fails miserably.

“Bores and Whores” - sounds like a new Bill O’Reilly segment
