John Edwards

Imploded democrat Wunderkind John Edwards is back in the news, finally admitting to his illegitimate child. At the same time, the National Enquirer is applying for the Pulitzer Prize for its coverage of the (pun fully intended) whole affair!

I was puzzled though, by this bit from Howard Kurtz, the WaPo media columnist:

That's right: a supermarket tabloid editor is now lecturing a former vice-presidential nominee on matters of morality.

What model of politics would suggest that, on average, tabloid editors would not be more moral than vice-presidential nominees from the major parties?

Indirect hat tip: Elena Spatoulas
