Why is Lawrence O'Donnell the only one calling out the WH Press Corps? [View all]

I am glad to see that there are a couple of threads about his show last night which was epic. He has no more ^%%$## to give about covering the disgraceful abdication of duty that the WHPC is engaging in. He actually called them the "stupidest press corps" covering the "stupidest President."

I think he is becoming more strident in his criticism because no one else in the corporate media is raising the alarm. Even good liberals like Rachel, Chris and others are silent on this particular issue. But it is too important to ignore. Our democracy depends on an adversarial media.

Look, I get it. It is extremely difficult to call out your peers. That's why what he is doing is courageous. We should reward him by making his show the highest rated show on MSNBC!
