How come these reporters act so different on KO than they do on the other shows on MSNBC? |

This might be a stupid question. But, the same reporters seem to be more thoughtful when they come on KO's show than the same reporters are on all the other shows on that network.

1. Because they're not reporters? |

Most modern TV "personalities" are actors and models, not journalists. They adopt the persona required by the part they're playing.

Reporters went out in the 60's. Now it's all show biz.

5. They all play "Please the host" |

Matthews wants one thing.
Olbermann wants something else.
Blitzer wants yet another.
If they want to be asked back (they ALL do), they will suck whatever dick is presented to them.
