Last week (Thursday I think) on MSNBC Andrea Mitchell (Alan Greenspan's wife - I wonder why she uses her maiden name?) held a very interesting discussion on Obama's dog, followed by a really interesting story about some NFL guy who may or may not get married.


MSNBC just interrupted a Russian-American press conference about a nuclear arms deal with a story about an arrest relating to the murder of a Florida toddler.

Then said "back to that other big story we're following..." (nukes).

Mika Brezezinsky (her dad was Obama's undergrad thesis adviser, among other things) and Anderson (Vanderbilt) Cooper are examples that meritocracy is alive and well in the US media.
