When future historians ask how the United States came not only to practice torture but to celebrate it and treat torturers as heroes, a special place in hell among the journalists who embraced and justified it should be reserved for Chris Wallace.
--Andrew Sullivan
I was led to this post -- a description of Wallace on his knees before Dick Cheney, or as Sully put it, "A Teenage Girl Interviewing The Jonas Brothers" -- by Glenn Greenwald's fine post on nepotism among the Villager media, to which I was directed by Jim Newell's take on Jenna Bush's new "job." I salute them both for being able to bring some humor to this sad state of affairs. Read 'em and weep.
Also, more from Sully on the Wallace "interview" here.

What special place does Sullivan earn?
Ooooo, that's mean. But not entirely undeserved.
Give him a place at the sometimes he's right, and I love him when he is, table. But there are lots of times he should go hungry, for sure.
