Dealing in absolutes! There are good reasons to know who Blitzer is (a couple of which tng listed) and bad (watching CNN daily). They rank as follows: bad < no knowledge < good.

Perhaps this ties into the conversation in which galen currently owes me a reply: walking away from conflict to diffuse it. Some may prefer to watch the occasional piece of mainstream media so they can mock it. I do not; I prefer to pretend it doesn't exist to the extent possible (just like with conflict).
