Our Crummy Media

The Associated Press and New York Times both cover the hearing before the New Jersey Supreme Court about the Democrats' right to name Torricelli's replacement on the ballot. The Times reports, for example: After hearing arguments for about two-and-a-half hours, the state Supreme Court justices adjourned without indicating when they would rule.

That's all very nice. But neither the AP nor the Times report describes anything any Justice said. In two and one half hours did not a single Justice ask not a single question or give not a single indication of a single fact or legal consideration that he or she thought was important?
