Normally I feel like some sort of ethical line would be crossed when a journalist offers political help. If Jake Tapper offered to help campaign and was gunning for a cabinet job while interviewing Governor Newsom there might be some backlash. But given the enormous upside that could occur with Dolly Parton and Afroman doing a campaign song to the tune of "Because I Got High" I think it's fine.

Thank you! Methinks this is such a long shot that it’s hard to get mad at yours truly

I think it's different when you're an opinion journalist anyway. You never claimed to be a classic gumshoe reporter.

This was great! Though I did a bit of a double-take when he said "I'm bigger than music." That line reminded me of John Lennon's "We're more popular than Jesus right now."
