I am well aware that the press can, all by itself, decide something is a giant story and put a particular slant on it. But they won't always do this, and there is no reason to expect them to do it appropriately. When do they?
The Ginni/Clarence Thomas story will likely disappear by Meet the Press tomorrow. That is not how it should be, but you go to politics with the press you have, not the press you want.
