Ignore president’s insults and keep reporting

TV political commentators spent lots of time on Monday expressing dismay that Donald Trump mocked the press at his Saturday rally in Pennsylvania. 

Why? 


We weren’t Washington, but back in my days at The Repository, when someone mocked our reporters for doing their jobs, they just shrugged, or laughed, and dug harder to do more.

It was sweet revenge.

  1. Good advice regardless of your profession, I believe. How exactly new media unleashed the "I'm outraged" virus, I'm not sure. (Guess this is more the "I'm dismayed" version of it).

    Enjoying the blog. Thanks.
