I’m wondering how Politico might have covered German politics in 1933. Any ideas?

The Führer is delivering on most of his promises. His strong leadership is extremely popular among those who consider themselves patriotic Germans.

Tiger Beat On The Potomac, as Esquire Politics blogger Charles P. Pierce so often refers to Politico, would have done the same in 1933 as they do now. Pushing pablum and gossip.

This is one of the consequences of treating politics as a horse race or a sporting event. Who's up who's down is all that matters. Bad enough in any political environment, but in the current one, this is deadly "journalism."

This is just another (as if any were needed) example of how the United States no longer has real, serious "journalists"; instead it has brain-dead, ignorant "entertainers" who masquerade as "journalists". This trend began in the mid-1990s and is now fully in control of U.S. "mainstream" media.
