A Heavy Fake

I have a big pile of images that are waiting to be turned into a blog post, but that takes too long, especially with the new Blogger (whine!), so instead for today, you get this from the Twitter feed of recently named MacArthur genius award-winner Tressie McMillan Cottom:

Reader here. Who *doesn't* open a book? Seriously. What kind of sociopath assumes that a person would do anything other than OPEN A BOOK?

She was responding to this tweet by retired NBC executive Mike Sington, who was writing about Mafia Mulligan's interview for 60 Minutes recently, which I hear didn't go well (you may have heard about that). 

But this. This!

Trying to impress her, Kayleigh McEnany hands Leslie Stahl a large book containing the Administration’s work on health care. I don’t think she expected Stahl to look at the book, because it’s blank:

All surface and no content. But look at the beautiful binding and how many "pages" it has! 

Maybe Mulligan can use it to scrawl his memoir in Sharpie while he spends his final years in exile or in custody.
