else?

It's an excellent article, but I can't agree that Meet The Press 'has a reputation for asking tough questions of Politicians'. I haven't seen it in years, because they did the opposite. The provided a forum for the War Criminals, Cheney, Condy, et al by asking a 'tough question', then letting them ramble on with diatribe sprinkled with 'mushroom clouds' and 'terror' and 'national security' and then after allowing them to lie moved on to the next question.
