Many thanks to the CJR's Jake Lahut for revealing the self-serving and clueless nature of the White House Press Corps. Billy Wilder's great movie ACE IN THE HOLE was intended as a bitter warning about everything wrong with media, about not viewing the subjects impacted by your story as people. But these arrogant attention whores can't and never will.
