Andrea Mitchell in Awe of Cabinet’s ‘Brain Power,’ Donaldson Pro-Mario Cuomo, Ombudsman Urges Bias Fix

Some quick items from the Sunday interview shows and newspapers courtesy of one of my favorite sites: News Busters:

♦ On Meet the Press, NBC reporter Andrea Mitchell, who last month hailed Obama’s “all-star cabinet,” on Sunday trumpeted the cabinet’s “meritocracy,” and how it’s supposedly made up of “superstars,” as she gushed over “people with so much brain power and so much education.”

♦ Over on ABC’s This Week, during the roundtable’s look at Caroline Kennedy as a potential Senator from New York, Sam Donaldson opined that “my preference would be Andrew Cuomo,” the liberal Attorney General for the Empire State, because, in part, “I thought his father would make a very good President.” That would be the far-left Mario Cuomo.

♦ In her final column for the Washington Post, outgoing ombudsman Deborah Howell urged the paper to address its lack of political diversity. Since “too many Post staff members think alike,” she advised: “Make a serious effort to cover political and social conservatives and their issues; the paper tends to shy away from those stories, leaving conservatives feeling excluded and alienated from the paper.”
