What are the ethics of a journalist seemingly operating as a journalist to pump political operatives for info when he (Matthews) may really be an unannounced candidate for political office?

Will any of the Media question the ethics of using his prominence as a PMSNBC talking head to obtain “inside” info and sensitive political assessments that might not otherwise be offered to the media or to other potential candidates?
