0:31.9	what is going wrong, and what is going right with the American news media. Eliana Johnson,
0:42.0	I am very glad that you were not a panelist on my Sunday show this week, because had you been, I would, you would have had to go
0:48.9	home with nothing to show for your trouble except for one St. Patrick's Day donut. Could you eat two donuts? I don't know,
