Ink Stained Wretches

The partner cop show of media analysis and criticism. Chris is the chirpy boy from the hills…a little anoying to the hard-bitten in the audience. Eliana is the tough chick with a Lois Vitenne bag…grating to people who like nice. Together they’re busting up the bad guys and the ridiculous, while ushering a new era in the American media. Thank you.

Let Eliana talk more (I follow the pod just to hear her - she is so balanced and down to earth), please. Chris, you can be great but have been hanging out with the Dispatch crowd too much - not looking for blanket endorsements of Trump administration actions, there is plenty to criticize, but a lot of your commentary sounds snarky and biased against the MAGA folks.

I personally like Chris Stierwalt but he’s blowing it for a while. You don’t have to like Trump. You don’t even have to be objective about Trump at this point. Give him both barrels if you wish. But keep it on policy. Never passing up an opportunity to intimate or allude that his voters, supporters or staff are racists, bigots or rubes has gone on too long. Many of us came for objective analysis and insider perspectives. And we left after constantly getting poked in the eye.

Chris bloviates, mansplains, monologues endlessly. He’s boring. Need Eliana to speak more, not just rebut his nonsense.
