Roanoke Times editorial page editor Dan Radmacher complains that some mainstream media (MSM) reporters -- especially those covering the nation's capital -- "are egotistical, lazy, complacent and addicted to their access to those in power, however little they use that access to actually benefit the public." He chides the journalists for thinking they've done their job if they simply quote both sides of an issue with no further effort to get at the truth of the matter.
