The thing that bothers me about journalism is the false equivalency we sometimes place on certain issues.

You're never going to hear me say, 'Well, I've been critical of Obama five times, so now I need to be critical of McCain five times.' That is a false equivalence, and that's what I think is wrong with journalism.

That's the thing about leaks: sometimes they aren't misinterpreted or false.

I had a moment where I left journalism, and I started getting interested in this issue and writing about it, where I felt there was a right side and a wrong side around a lot of these issues relating to education.

Sadly, journalism doesn't always state the obvious.

When I listen to President Obama speak to and about women, he sometimes sounds too paternalistic for my taste.
