Headline: 'Is David Gregory a Vegetable?'
The Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), an organization created in 1999 to prompt debate on social and economic issues, says NBC "Meet the Press" Host David Gregory fell down on the job this week.

Unraveling Amie's Job Switch
While most were prepping the bird on Thanksgiving morning, we discovered a true holiday miracle. A new piece from Politico's Amie Parnes! Okay, so.. It's KIND of a piece.

Spotted: The Weekly Standard's Bill Kristol at DCA
We spotted Bill Kristol, founder and Editor of The Weekly Standard, entering Reagan National Airport around 10:20 a.m Monday. He was wearing a dark blue suit with a lighter blue button-up shirt. He was alone and wheeling one medium-sized piece of luggage. The blank expression on his face as well as his casual stroll indicated he was neither in a rush nor late for his flight. We did our best to snap a... read more>>
Howard Kurtz as Sherlock Holmes
CNN's "Reliable Sources" Host Howard Kurtz really sharpened his investigative skills in his Media Monitor segment this week as he delved deep into the mystery behind an "exclusive" interview that aired on WNYW, a New York Fox station. Anchor Greg Kelly didn't disclose that his guest, Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, was his father until the nine-minute segment was nearly over. Kurtz found this and the cutesy way the news was revealed... read more>>

He's BAAACK! NPC Ethics Committee Clears Suspended Member After Last Week's Drama
The soap opera at the National Press Club is over. At least for now. Club member Sam Husseini, who was suspended last week after club officials found his behavior at a recent presser distasteful, learned over the holiday weekend that the Ethics Committee has ruled that he's back in. At the heart of the dispute was whether Husseini is really a journalist. Second to that, is he a nuisance? Depending who you... read more>>
