Why is Judy Woodruff Popular?

[SoDesuKa]

I keep seeing Judy Woodruff's name in connection with television reporting. She must be a big deal. From what I've seen of her, she's nothing special. Is she popular? Why do I keep seeing her name?

1. Who says she is?

She's just riding on a residual "credibility" because she used to be on PBS.

2. She is?? Coulda fooled me!

3. She united supporters of all primary candidates during the CNN debate

For once, supporters of Kuchinich, Clark, Dean and Kerry were all united in their disgust and actions of protest against CNN (which were successful - they stopped gloating about their unprofessional conduct quite early the day after.
So, you see, Judy Dandruff is a uniter too.

4. Since CNN is becoming less and elss popular

I could not say that she is that popular. Just because they park her melodramatic face in front of the camera does not make her popular. It just means she has no problem spewing forth the glurge they give to her to read. She is a used up media whore, a shill for the right wing, and she looks like a floozy.

5. She's not. CNN just keeps shoving her down viewer's throats.

6. Judy's just another tired Washington insider with a facelift...

... no better than Sally Quim or Cokie Regurge.

8. This is simply a matter of being seen at the right places in the

right company.It also helps that her husband is Al Hunt the WSJ Op-Ed columnist.They are an item in the washington, D.C. party circuit which, of course, includes Sally Quinn, the ultimate insider, who determines who is in and who is out.
