“The News and Journalism has gone into permanent hibernation since Nixon was nominated in 1968.”
Maybe since Nixon was nominated in 1960.
Remember how the press fawned over the Kennedys? When JFK won they literally wept for joy and called the White House Camelot!
They thought JFK was the ideal human - the second coming.
Yeah I’ll go for 1960 but wasn’t much into news and politics then - mostly beer and vodka ...
As with Obama. And even Bill Clinton. And sadly, many folks here think the same about Trump. :(
