American journalist, author, and former lawyer.
The attempt to depict people as sub-human monsters due to any political disagreements benefits outlets that thrive and depend on hateful polarization, but it's so often (not always, but often) a wild caricature. Read this reflective resignation letter from @buttonslives:
Good article on how the invasion of Iraq wasn't a "blunder" but a grave crime. And yet - other than Judy Miller - none of the leading architects and advocates of it paid any price. To the contrary, they rose to the top of media and politics, beginning with the current President.
Really interesting NYT article on the difficult decisions faced by @soledadobrien when deciding which type of art she wanted to decorate the floors of the guest house of her new estate in West Palm Beach, her third or fourth beautiful sprawling home.
