The media a long time ago converged on presenting all politics in terms of dichotomies. Those of us old enough to remember point/counterpoint exemplifies this fetish. This kind of dichotomy is meaningful only when you’re talking about passing legislation or not. The great substance of all discussion though can’t be fit into dichotomies, especially when you’re gathering basic information. And that has almost been completely eradicated. #journalism
