Reportorial Revolving Door
21st March 2011
The decision of a news reporter at the Washington Post to go to work for Vice President Obama as communications director is raising some eyebrows. Yahoo! News reports that the reporter “was still covering legislative battles and Biden’s role up until a few weeks ago.” A commenter at Politico suggests, “Her reporting on Biden was basically a ‘job tryout.'”
My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.
