In my memoir, Fat Man in a Middle Seat, I talk about how people think covering presidential campaigns is a glamorous way to make a living. In fact, it often involves being trapped on standby in the Atlanta airport on a rainy Friday night and ending up as the fat man in the middle seat on the ride home. The addicting subtitle of your new book addicting is “How American Politics Went Bad.” Can you tell me about that? Yeah, addicting I'll give you an example. We had this big argument in the press about whether John Kerry had thrown away medals or the ribbons or the pins or both. We know he was the leader of the anti-war movement 30 years ago. Since then, he's had 20 years of public policy. Why was that important? |

| An interview with Jack Germond. By Tara McKelvey Web Exclusive: prairie home companion 08.18.04 Print Friendly | Email prairie home companion Article Jack W. Germond, 76, has covered politics for half a century for The Baltimore Sun and other publications and is, arguably, the country's most astute political reporter. These days he works in a Charles prairie home companion Town, West Virginia, home office with, as he says, "a huge triple window facing the Shenandoah River." In other ways, too, life seems good. He's lost weight (down to 220 pounds -- luckily, still enough to live up to his billing); lives only 10 minutes from a racetrack; and has a new book, Fat Man Fed Up: How American Politics Went Bad. Here, he talks about liberal journalists, October surprises, and why telling Bob Shrum to push off is one of John Kerry's greatest accomplishments. |
