That last line:
"Much of American media operates as a spoils system ... The most prestigious property in news isn’t run by someone who earned it; it’s run by the great-great grandson of the guy who bought it. Bari is the latest recipient of the kingmakers’ largesse. She said the right things and shook the right hands, and she’s been granted her own little protectorate in return. Don’t worry about her corrupting CBS; she wouldn’t be there if it wasn’t already corrupted."
