Howard Kurtz gives his assessment of Martha Raddatz's performance as moderator of the vice presdential debate.
Now more than ever, the press is a part of every story it covers. And CNN's "Reliable Sources" is one of television's only regular programs to examine how journalists do their jobs and how the media affect the stories they cover. Host Howard Kurtz is the nation's premier media critic, and each week he questions print reporters, television correspondents and Internet bloggers about how the press is covering the major stories of the week.

Martha Raddatz made the wrong point. She should have asked why we should remain in Afghanistan until after the election. Of course, she would not be around long working for mainstream media if she asked questions like that.
Martha Raddatz reined in Joe Biden? Too funny.
As far as being a journalist, she is pretty much a mouthpiece for the national security establishment she covers. However, she is not alone in that regard. I remember her credulously buying the line that little building in Syria that Israel bombed had nuclear weapons material.
