How biography & autobiography then can we complain when so many mediocre individuals are elected to represent us? Germond skewers the print and broadcast media, who biography & autobiography pounce on every peccadillo and scandal in a politician's background, but who fail to balance things by giving thoughtful coverage to the important issues of the day. Small wonder that so many voters throw up their hands in despair when they consider their options. After all, they think, aren't all politicians lying crooks? If we believe what we biography & autobiography read in the papers and see on television, we might think that there are no honest elected officials working hard day after day to make our country a better place. |

| Bukowsky "booklover10" (Brooklyn, NY United States) newcity's extra raw - See all my reviews Jack Germond has been a reporter for newcity's extra raw fifty years, and in that time, he has seen it all. "Fat Man Fed Up" is a scathing indictment of the process that has made the newcity's extra raw American electoral system a shallow and hypocritical exercise. Germond points his finger at an indifferent electorate, the media, and at politicians themselves, who, in his opinion, all share some of the blame for the decline of American politics. Germond quotes a publisher named Gray who flatly states that "we get about what we deserve" in terms of our elected officials at all levels of government. Many voters are poorly informed about issues, and they are impatient with politicians who discuss the economy or foreign policy in detail. Such voters look for attractive and likeable candidates, and they often reject more qualified individuals who are less charismatic. |
