Who is the best political journalist of this generation?

There are a few great political journalists out there. Unfortunately, and like Greenwald, they have limited audiences, primarily (in my opinion), because they don't cater to the general population's ADD.

I liked the piece you referenced. The flip side to it, is the windfall for Putin out of the US Syria strike, namely because Putin gets kudos, and fuels Russian national pride, by opposing American aggression. Polls now show, that about 80% of Russians, support the Syria campaign, making it easier for him to continue ruling.

I also like Charlie Rose.

PS: Greenwald, mentions how elated Fareed Zakaria is. I am really disappointed in Zakaria. All Trump had to do, was bomb the guy, who's been bombing Sunnis, for the Sunni Zakaria, to praise Trump. That's not real objective journalism, but that's another thing I agree with Greenwald on (and something I've been stating here on SW). For the cable networks, it's ALL about the eyeballs, and not some political agenda.

This guy might soon have a claim ; http://www.rawstory.com/2017/04/journalist-trump-called-nasty-guy-wins-pulitzer-prize/

For me though (and I'm not quite sure if he's actually 'this generation' or not) , I'd go for Robert Fisk (The Independent). If you ever want to know the real story in the Middle East , then he's your man.

Alex Jones
Sure he's a muck raking lunatic, but he has been correct WAY to many times for my liking.
The only reason he hasn't been Breitbarted is that he plays up the lunatic angle so he's not taken too seriously.

I enjoy reading David Frum and David Brooks. They are both conservatives who are highly critical of the Trump administration. I appreciate their perspective.

I'm inclined to agree with you about Glenn Greenwald. The late Michael Hastings was also very good.

Hands down no doubt about it. He should get more exposure.
