The clip above has wingnuts spinning (h/t NewsBusters). Partial back and forth below:
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Yeah, well, you know what? I want to do everything I can to make this thing work, this new presidency work, and I think that –
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Is that your job? You just talked about being a journalist!
MATTHEWS: Yeah, it is my job. My job is to help this country.
As a citizen, maybe. Not as a journalist. Journalists are to be unbiased and report the facts as they uncover them.
But we all know Chris Matthews is an opinionated talking head, not a journalist anymore. That’s fine, but beware. If he likes you, as he does Barack Obama, that’s good for us as far as it goes and lasts. But approval can shift.
Barack Obama’s honeymoon is on. Let’s hope it lasts long enough for the Obama-Biden administration to get grounded.
