I recently heard him cite the coverage given to whether John Kerry computers / computer graphics / game programming threw away his Vietnam War medals or his ribbons during a demonstration that occurred over 30 years ago. "Who cares?" he asks. Politics today, he claims, is built on television, money, and celebrity. Germond also blasts computers / computer graphics / game programming "the big lie" school of campaigning - where empty slogans and noise sell the candidates. What I most enjoy about this book, however, are not the problems Germond discusses, but the wonderful anecdotes - computers / computer graphics / game programming the juicy tidbits - he supplies to illustrate his points. Most of these are drawn from his own experiences. This is much more than the usual election year publication. Fat Man Fed Up is a memoir of sorts, of and by a reporter who has seen it all and offers you his memories, close up and personal, of past presidential candidates, elections and our political process. |
