TV Election Coverage Through a Jaundiced Eye

The current Low Post section of Rolling Stone’s online site has Matt Taibbi’s diary notes made while watching the election results on TV.  These are not for the young or the pious; they are for the news junkie who wonders why they fell asleep early last Tuesday night. Politicsandpress commented on the mindlessness of TV coverage in its earlier blog: “TV or Not TV”.  But Taibbi managed to stay awake long enough to provide greater detail.  Read and laugh and/or weep.
