Insiders

I used to be extremely cynical about the media's ability to understand and accurately portray issues. This made me disinclined to follow the news and dubious about everything I heard. And then . . . I discovered Insiders! On Insiders they get journos from the left and right together to discuss the week's events. I love it because it exposes me to different analyses of and opinions about what's happening and because my understanding of politicing is improving. I'm getting better at seeing what politicians say in political terms. You'd think this would make me more cynical, but I always knew this was just part of the territory, so now I'm happy that I'm more able to discern the substance from the spin.
