    Jeet Heer Retweeted Jennifer Epstein

    America would be in much better shape if guys like Biden & Obama stopped reading Brooks and read Pat Buchanan, Ann Coulter or the writings of the late Samuel T. Francis. Then they'd know what they are up against.https://twitter.com/jeneps/status/1107064916261912582 …

    "I get criticized for this as well," Biden says before referring to David Brooks. Says Brooks is a "brilliant writer."

        Liberals pretending they are open minded by reading milquetoast New York Times or Atlantic sanctioned conservatives is the ultimate in parochialism. If they were serious, they'd be reading real right -- the paleo-cons and the alt-right.

        Biden wouldn't understand it. Obama is aware but has to pretend he isn't

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        David Brooks does some things quite well. He's a voice for non-hysteria and moderation in our politics. On the other hand, we hardly find moral outrage or fire in his belly in his speech and writings, and so he's frequently uninspiring, and at times insipid

        You had me until the 'frequently ' and the 'at times'.

        they could at least read Hawley's two books explaining the paleo and WN rightwing if they don't want to read the original texts.

        (nods) Like googling Samuel T Francis or browsing Buchanan & Coulter in a bookstore, listening to the radio is easy and quick to do, but way informative.

        A colleague thought that by reading The Wall Street Journal and listening to NPR, that they were getting a balanced perspective on political views in the media. In my head, I was thinking more like OANN and Mother Jones.

        @democracynow, which brings on articulate experts and academics and actually allows them to speak at length. @Thom_Hartmann brings on good people and two progressive pols lend their time. You also get to hear @profwolff & other thoughtful authors and thinkers.
