Scahill burns Brooks
“The irony of what Brooks is saying is that it is he who is the ultimate inside baseball junkie, the king of kvetching with the powerful. He is the gatekeeper for the stupid, undeserving public who wouldn’t be able to handle the truth if they knew it. In our infotainment society where the kids from Jersey Shore are “reality” and the deaths of innocent Afghans and Iraqis are, at best, statistics, David Brooks fits in perfectly.”
