Sixty Minutes Likes Their PBJ

Apparently, Gov. Bobby Jindal was on 60 Minutes the other night and I missed it, though I highly doubt I would have watched even I knew he was going to be on. Turns out my no decision was the right decision as Louisiana’s Your Right Hand Thief blogs.

Anyway, 60 Minutes had a celebrate-the-biography approach to the Jindal story, which is what I expected. They didn’t press him repeatedly on any topic other than his ancestry and his ambitions. After making two irritating references to New Orleans and Louisiana being underwater, 60 Minutes followed the “Jindal is a Fresh New Whiz Kid Wonder Boy with Extra Ethics” script to a T.

. . .

They interviewed Jindal himself in a still-devastated section of the lower 9th ward, and DIDN’T ask: “If you’re really trying to ‘fix’ Louisiana rather than run for President, what are you doing about this field of ruins we are standing in? Precisely when will this neighborhood be rebuilt?”
