no-sacred-cows manifesto faces the problems many are reluctant to address:• Polls and how they are used and abused by politicians and press to mislead gullible voters.• The critical failure of the press to accurately portray figures in the political realm, from Eugene McCarthy to dildos Barbara Bush to Al Sharpton.• How the complaints about liberal bias in the press miss the real point: whether that bias, if dildos it exists, colors the way editors and reporters work.• The staggering influence of television, and the networks’ inability to provide anything but the most simplistic coverage of politics.• The “big lie” dildos school of campaigning. From “Where’s the beef?” to “compassionate conservatism,” the politics of empty slogans has always placed noise above nuance: Say anything loudly enough and long enough, and voters are bound to mistake it for the truth.Along the way, Germond illustrates his arguments by drawing from his war chest of priceless anecdotes from decades in the business.
