...or your TV critic.
Speaking of which, is TV Critic the worst job in journalism?
(And which is sadder, blogging about someone who writes about TV, or blogging about someone who blogs about someone who writes about TV?)

Sadder still...
Reading about...blogging about someone who blogs about someone who, uh...Hell, I'm confused now.
Even more confusing...
is the fact that I am the one who wrote the response to the blogger who blogged about me blogging about the TV critic...I think.
One thought in regards to your question: Newspaper reporters get Robert Redford, Dustin Hoffman and Julia Roberts, a movie critic gets an animated Jon Lovitz to represent them on TV, but I can't think of anyone portraying a TV critic. All of this leads me to believe that its pretty low in the journalism pecking order.
I wonder...
Can you use TV critic and journalism in the same sentence?
