An Incredibly Good Article About Brit Hume
Brit Hume, who has been a part of the Washington DC news scene for about 30 years, has garnered the respect of many.
Including, it would seem, Howard Kurtz at the Washington Post.
Most of the time it's quite difficult for conservatives of any stripe to get a fair shake over at WaPo, but Kurtz has written an unusually balanced piece about the man who helped make FOX News a household brand.
There are a few "I can't help myself" kind of comments by Kurtz (criticisms that he makes about conservative journalists could be turned right around and used against leftist journalists, for example). Overall, though, I think you'll agree that the article is an accurate reflection of Hume as a man and as a journalist.
Read it and see if you don't agree.
