McClatchy remains the best journalistic outfit in the country. I don’t really understand why that is, but they completely outclass the reporters at the New York Times and the Washington Post. They are much better than the Associated Press’s reporters. McClatchy doesn’t just regurgitate talking points. They go out and do gumshoe investigations and then they report it all straight. Yet, very few people are reading their work compared to the other major reporting outfits.
Maybe the McClatchy people just don’t care about being invited on cable news programs and the latest Georgetown cocktail parties. I don’t know. But, it’s strange.
