Wednesday Morning Open Thread

Good morning.

It's only Wednesday? Why does this already feel like it's been a long week?

John and I have been talking and writing a lot about the traditional media of late. Many reporters and pundits seem particularly angry and aggressive towards the Obama administration -- while still coddling Republicans. I don't have a problem with the media holding public officials accountable -- that is what they are supposed to do. (Although, they failed miserably during the eight years of Bush and Cheney.) But, there's an ugly edge to the coverage of late. It's something we're going to have to monitor and fight back against. I wonder if it's because, once again, Jon Stewart, who appears on a network called the "Comedy Central," has upstaged them. Lots of ego in the traditional media. Big, big egos.

It's only Wednesday...
