...The One-Minute Pundit

For those who remember journalism back in a 1970s heyday they can't explain to to the young, Halberstam's death was not just the death of a hero, it was like the death of the great Hollywood stars -- Katharine Hepburn, Clark Gable. Who would replace them? No one has. Maybe no one ever does.

When hacks see themselves as "the great Hollywood stars" -- or even when they see their heroes as such -- we see what is wrong with JERNALISM.

(Via the usual Romy, who has a little of Jimmy Cagney in him -- or so he thinks)
