TOO LATE: Politico Wag Mocks the Puffery: ‘Stop the Press Before It Profiles Beto O’Rourke Again.’ “Politico magazine media writer Jack Shafer is not your typical lefty media type, as demonstrated by his Thursday piece ‘Stop the Press Before It Profiles Beto O’Rourke Again.’ Shafer calls out his colleagues for overdoing the Beto ‘buzz,’ and then underlines his agreement with the conventional wisdom that O’Rourke’s opponent Ted Cruz is a terrible human being.”

Just once I’d like to see a left-leaning critique of the media without the “Yes, but…” aimed at the right.
