Hard Hitting Reporting is Awesome

Jamison Foser wrote well about Carl Bernstein's book A Woman in Charge, exposing the idiocy behind the "authenticity" storyline that so fascinates the MSM/punditocracy to the detriment of our society. I can't add much to that; I won't read the book. When it comes to coverage of the Clintons, brains shrivel up and die like a slug in the sun. I just don't have enough time in my life to waste with that, so thank God someone does.

I do have to highlight, for my own piece of mind, one bit, from an interview on O'Reilly:

O'REILLY: Did she break the law?

BERNSTEIN: Yes.

O'REILLY: OK. Good, I like this. How did she break the law?

BERNSTEIN: She broke the law if, indeed, she perjured herself.

O'REILLY: Well, you just said she did break the law.

BERNSTEIN: No. The special prosecutor determined that she did not. So he did not file the charge.

O'REILLY: So you think she did. But the special prosecutor, Ken Starr, said no.

BERNSTEIN: That is co -- you know what? Let me be really straightforward. I don't think she broke the law. I think there was a time that she did not tell the truth.

O'REILLY: Under oath?

BERNSTEIN: You know, I wasn't in the room.

What? What is that incoherent crap? "I think she broke the law. If she did. Which the special prosecutor said she didn't. But I think she did sometime. But I really don't know, because I wasn't there."

The MSMs coverage of Hillary Clinton, in a nutshell.
