Jeff Jarvis offers "advice for Democrat pundits." I don't think it will work, otherwise Alan Combs would be in O'Reilly's spot.


Secondly, liberals already have their own cable news channels. They're called CNN and MSNBC, in addition to ABC, NBC and CBS. They are chockablock with "telegenic, intelligent, entertaining, funny, self-assured and outspoken" pundits. OK, most of them aren't funny, and their intelligence is suspect or they wouldn't be liberals, but they do have some youngish pundits in training.


If Phil Donahue isn't liberal enough, I don't know who would be--oops, he won't do because of his "oozing superiority." I thought that was part of the definition of liberal.

Come to think of it, why would anybody with a brain want to encourage liberal punditry anyway? The real reason for FNC's success is that it offers different points of view from the rest of the media. I don't know how you could achieve that with more liberals.
