have been a really disastrous presidency, but now along comes a very fine "new york times" writer matt baeho rehashes the gary hart story and says character reporting has led us into gotcha reporting. no. gary hart's problem was not adultery. his problem was character. he couldn't get out of that pathology that he had been raised with, and we needed to know that. right after he was caught and found out, his presidential campaign torpedoed he was still lying and blaming the press at a big convention. he was standing there holier than thousand talking about let's head out press ruined his campaign. he is totally blameless. he walks out the back door and gets into a car with a "new york times" top executive who told me this story, and they were going on a trip in new york together for two weeks. he said have you lined up the girls yesterday, sydney? sydney said, you know, hart, i would like you to have two operations. one would be to cut out your tongue. guess what the other one would be. >> one can debate whether gail sheehy is right about character reporting or whether matt bae is right abo
