Wallace Criticizes TV News; Great Debaters Leave ‘Em Laughing FOX News host Chris Wallace gave attendees the “inside scoop” on the presidential election, including how the time limitations of television news can sometimes shortchange the public. To emphasize, Wallace impersonated legendary TV newsman David Brinkley: “Today Moses came down from the mountain with 10 commandments…here are the two most important.” The lunchtime “Great Debate” between MSNBC’s Tucker Carlson and former Clinton adviser Paul Begala offered a successful mix of political insight and Beltway humor. Carlson, a staunch conservative, said that the press in Washington “is in love” with Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), jesting that Obama’s historic bid for the White House has created “the Journalist Full Employment Act.” He also poked fun at the Democrats, particularly the party’s powerful superdelegates, who he said remind him of the House of Lords—“you know, pheasant hunters who look like Ichabod Crane—like a council of elders.” Begala, retaliated by taking a shot at former Republican candidate Mitt Romney, when he quipped “it cost him about $35 million for just one delegate.” Carlson begrudgingly agreed with Begala that a Democratic victory this year seems likely, considering President Bush’s historically low approval rating, which Begala joked would be even lower were it not for the support of his “blood relations and frat brothers.” Greg Cohen of the american highway users alliance and Shirley ybarra of the reason Foundation conduct a town hall discussion on whether government or private firms should own the nation’s infrastructure. MSnBC’s tucker Carlson and Democratic campaign adviser Paul Begala debated the election from opposite viewpoints. emmy award–winner ross Shafer kept engineering excellence awards Gala attendees entertained with his hilarious wit.
