Is there anything you would have done differently?

We've reported a true story.

Our colleague Brian Williams is back in Kuwait City tonight after a close call on the skies over Iraq.

Controversal Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, and questions about Kavanaugh's drinking in the past.

Sean Hannity, come on up, Sean Hannity.

Today, Andrew Cuomo is having a moment.

Hi, I'm Chris Steyerwald.

There is no Eliana Johnson here, but you are still welcomed to ink-stained wretches,

where we break down what's going wrong and what's going right with the American news media.

And you might have guessed that we are having a guest interview, the

interviews edition of Ink Stained Wretches.

You already know that because you read the description for this podcast before you clicked

on it.

So we will not waste any more time in telling you that John Ward is joining us. And I am very pleased that

John Ward is joining us because I admire the heck out of John Ward. Things that I admire John

Ward for are being a reliable, factual, savvy reporter on presidential politics, particularly,

somebody whose work I have used, relied on over the years

in many iterations. I admire him because he managed to write a book that is a good book and will

manage to not please anyone entirely, which is what I use is the mark of good writing,

which is he doesn't let anybody off the hook in his new book, testimony, which I read and enjoyed.

And John, welcome to the podcast.

Hey, thank you, Chris.
