Quote: “To cover politics in Washington allows you to live in the very, very wide gap between what the actual truth is and how people are trying to manipulate the truth. They speak in the language of spin, obsequiousness, obfuscation. The meta of politics is just this endless source of material that can shed light on the psychology of the process.”
