Reason 1,896,267 why we need News Media, not EnterTAINT-media

And reason 1,896,268, too.
Palin will sit down for multiple interviews with Gibson in Alaska over two days, most likely Thursday and Friday, said McCain adviser Mark Salter.

Political interviews are never done like this. Because it makes the questioning entirely at the discretion of the person being interviewed and their handlers. The interviewer has to be on their best behavior, at least until the last of the 'multiple interviews' because otherwise the subsequent sittings just won't happen. For a political journalist to agree to such terms amounts to a form of self-gelding. The only interviews that are done this way are lifestyle and celebrity interviews. And it's pretty clear that that is what this will be.

It will be unwatchable

Hat-tip to Talking Points Memo for both cringe inducing instances of the Corporate EnterTAINT-media's race to the bottom.--where the bottom line is the buck and where 'fair and unbiased' is a figment of their imagination.
