the corrupt state of new york politics, he was going to reform the disgusting mess that is new york statethat would be part of his political leg agency, right? he tried to get good government reforms passed in the state legislature, that legislation failed. and then andrew cuomo decided he would create a commission and making recommendations about what new york state needed to do differently, to avoid having half the state legislature getting arrested over the last couple years. the commission was made up of district attorneys, former prosecutors, police commissioners and others. they had a year and a half remit for doing their work, they had subpoena power, that could commission -- the commission could compel anyone theyen watted to to turn over documents. and no one was supposed to be above the mandate of this commission. when the governor announced he was creating it, the mandate was broad, everyone was fair game from top to bottom in new york state government. >> the governor has this power to direct me to investigate and inquire into any matter relating to the public peace, public sa

joining me, andrew rosenthal with "the new york times." at about the idea you guys are coming out with this after this reached this crucial threshold in public opinion? did that factor into the decision to do this? >> it did in a certain sense. it's indisputably true that public opinion has shifted. no question about it. we've been careful and cautious on this subject. we found ourselves covering this issue just more and more and more in the editorial page because the states have been moving forward at an incredibly rapid pace to essentially defy federal law. and soured we needed to take a stance and do it now so we did. >> this is a nerdy journalism question. maybe no one cares but i'm interested. is that a knockdown -- "the new york times" comes out for marijuana legalization. that's a big deal. you're here now. it got a lot of press. is that a big argument? >> inside? >> in the room. >> not particularly. i was a little bit surprised when i told the publisher that we wanted to it, he said fine. i think he'd probably been there before i wa

city and having read the new york "herald tribune," i always lamented when it folded as a newspaper, went out of business in 1966. but his career continued. he worked for "newsweek," he reported for the "washington post," he then came up here to capitol hill where he worked for senator hugh scott, the senate republican leader, he was a press secretary for senator jabets, then he went back to journalism. he went to the "national journal" and also for cox newspapers where he was a column list. more recently we're familiar with him because he was the managing editor of t hill newspaper and in 2006 he joined politico. so that's quite a resume over time. and our other guest today is roger mudd who was born right here in washington, d.c. and graduated from washington and lee university and took a masters degree at the university of north carolina in history and he was studying the relationship of the press with fdr's new deal. and at that point he thought he should get experience in seeing what the press was like so he took a summer job with a num, the richmond "news leader" and it happen
