depressing than when the wall street journal sends me a huge expense to deeply report a story from burma and four people read it. forget it, i can write another piece about donald trump and i know it would have a huge audience. so there is a shallowing of journalism and i think therefore, a shallowing of public -- of public rhetoric, public discourse, and very naturally, i think both politically, people want to play to those shallower narratives it becomes difficult to see complexity in issues. it becomes so much easy dwroer simply say you're on one side, you're on the other, there is no gray zone, there is no in between and there is no room for judgment or views that are some what shaded or colored by some complexity. i think that is a real issue. one thing i want to point out, since i do write about foreign policy, what is happening in the united states in this season is happening all over the world. the philippines just elected as president, a man who is described as the donald trump of the philippines, we have a populist right wing party in many years illliberal party in poland. the
