Germond takes today's press to task for its failure to accurately portray prominent political figures - from Barbara Bush to Al Sharpton. Politicians and the media are criticized for their use and abuse of political polls to mislead uninformed and gullible voters. Germond also holds forth on freaks the extraordinary influence of TV on the electorate, and campaign coverage driven by sound bites. He reminds the reader that the TV networks control dialogue and all freaks but the most simplistic, shallow political coverage is provided. Given that many Americans are not particularly knowledgeable or politically savvy, candidates and their managers know how to manipulate them. Meanwhile, Germond writes, the media focuses on all the wrong things - meaningless polls and meaningless scandals. |

I picked up a copy of his recent book Fat Man Fed Up: video How American Politics Went Bad, because I too am fed up and believe that today's politics are as bad as I have experienced - and I clearly remember some rotten political abuses in the 1960s and 70s. Germond addresses the decline of substance, civility and integrity in politics today. And he certainly doesn't disappoint readers with this scathing, witty, insightful assessment. Fat Man Fed Up tackles video problems that other journalists seem reluctant to address. Indeed he believes that one of the video reasons politics has gone bad is because journalists have allowed it to. He laments that most newspapers seem to have lost interest in politics, while talk radio and cable TV news have increased divisiveness and partisanship in the country. Mr. Germond responds to complaints of liberal bias in the media and points out that these complaints "miss the real point." |
