Title Katy Tur's campaign memoir

[jmowreader]

Katy Tur is the embedded reporter in Donald Trump's campaign entourage. You KNOW she's going to write a book...then disappear into an undisclosed location to protect herself from a Trumpler fatwa. What's the title going to be?

My best guess: Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 2016. Yes, it's a ripoff of a great author's work, but any proper book on the Trump campaign will have to be written in the style of Hunter S. Thompson.

7. ANCHORWOMAN!

How Trump and the NBC Network Moved Me From a Third String Reporter Waiting, Interminably, Her Turn, to Next In Line Behind Andrea Mitchell!

When they gave her that assignment they never thought Trump would go all the way. The "important" people got Cruz, Rubio, and the expected prize, Bush.

They couldn't pull her off once she got in there, though--ticked a lotta people off. And now, through a combination of incredible luck, a bit of hard work, and Trump crapping on her while she bounces back, she's a "name."

I was reading Confederacy on a commuter train about 35 years ago and burst out laughing. People thought I was being rude.

37. It's hands down the funniest book I ever read.

58. Confederacy and its surrounding story are great, great reading.

Even if I didn't love New Orleans with all my heart it's one of the most fascinating and real character studies ever done. In spite of Ignatius being larger than life he and the others are real NOLA types, ones seldom given their due. And Toole's story is sad and compelling. Oh, right, we were talking politics...

[BeyondGeography]

59. It's more worth talking about with each passing year

Sadly. But there's always the consolation of wisdom laced with humor:

"The only excursion of my life outside of New Orleans took me through the vortex to the whirlpool of despair: Baton Rouge. . . . New Orleans is, on the other hand, a comfortable metropolis which has a certain apathy and stagnation which I find inoffensive."

19. Why can't she just have her own style?

You really think that a female journalist has to copy a man?

Thumbs down from me.
