    History

    Since 1984 Newsweek has embedded reporters in election campaigns never releasing the reporters inputs until after the presidential election.
    This, I believe, is non-political, but historical. The read is long, please refrain from comments until you have read the entire entry (all seven chapters).

    PS It is a great read. Future historians will treat it as an important source document.

      Seven chapters? Is there a Cliff Notes version, or will it be coming to a theater near me soon? That could require a week's worth of trips to the "powder room"...

          Bad decisions make good stories.

              Taint that long. I read it while LOML watched her daily dose of soaps. Couple of hours. You can do it right after you find the cure for ebola this afternoon. As a germdoc I am sure you know that the last thing you want to do is steal the copy of Newsweek from the clinic's waiting room, unless of course you are looking for a new line of research.
