WTOP is the worst…

Well, maybe not the worst, but like Politico without the occasional insightfulness.

They, on occasion, do ask a decent question of a politician. And some of their correspondents (national security guy, can’t think of name) are interesting.

I do rank them higher than the local D.C. news anchors at least. But that’s not saying much.

Speaking of local D.C. news, a week before the New York Democratic Primary, one of the local D.C. news anchors went off the teleprompter (you can usually tell because they stammer and stutter like an idiot) and made some really stupid comment about how the Democratic nomination race was “going to tighten in the coming weeks.” Right, with Clinton up 20+ points in New York, it’s really going to tighten.

And I am sitting watching the broadcast thinking if I got a Communications degree from Syracuse (and didn’t have the face for radio) I could be on TV, making more than $100,000, giving the most idiotic political commentary in the world.
