My immediate reaction to this apparent June 24 marriage between ABC News & His Majesty to push Majesty's health care reform agenda...




This joint White House/ABC News primetime media event, which will apparently exclude opposing viewpoints, strikes this old J-School grad as a perhaps unprecedented media excursion into the realm of pure advocacy under the false guise of objective journalism. In short, it's pathetic. But am I shocked or overly surprised? Not really. And that might be the saddest thing of all.
