La profesión está plagada de viejos profesionales que trabajan en un miasma de creciente decrepitud y a menudo alcoholismo, y más aún de jóvenes arrogantes y abrasivos que sustituyen la perspicacia por el "compromiso". El producto de su apasionada intervención en los asuntos públicos es más a menudo la confusión que la lucidez.
