The snark is… palpable in this response from CNN’s Rick Sanchez to Samuel Wurzelbacher’s (a.k.a. Joe the Plumber) idiotic comments about journalists. I’m not a fan of Sanchez, and he’s a bit too snarky for my taste, but I felt like I should pass this on. Real journalists don’t get the respect for what they do, and war correspondents, especially the non-embedded ones who actually go out into battle zones, really are one of the few examples of journalism left.
