I guess the hearings need Russell Crowe walking out in gladiator gear, killing someone, and then asking the cameras whether or not they are sufficiently entertained.

Treating our governmental processes as some sort of reality show… I don’t really know how to react from this other than feeling some blind anger.

I read that in ancient rome, public figures such as actors or gladiators were considered infam and forbidden occupy public office to avoid turning politics into spectacle.

We are starting to see some of the reasoning behind it.
