Polarization


Watching the funeral for President Ford it is troubling to hear the press bemoaning the polarized climate in Washington. Many times I have witnessed the press taking the position of egging two sides on. It can create more news.

The press does not bear total responsibility. Polarizing has worked for politicians, to sell a certain idea, or agenda. But it is really offensive to me to hear them lamenting it, as if they were innocent bystanders.
