"Self-destructive Idiocy"

A reader writes:

I remember reading in CS Lewis' novel That Hideous Strength about how the evil eldila would destroy their willing puppets, like Frost and Wither, as "They always break their tools." And indeed that is precisely what happened in that book. Perhaps that is one explanation for the otherwise baffling display of self-destructive idiocy by powerful MSM potentates currently on display in both the unbelievable bad judgment seen in the Rathergate scandal and the very public paranoid ravings of Mr. Jordan. I really don't want to explore the boundary between demonology and MS "journalism," but as the power of the established media starts to wane, so it seems does the does the sanity of some of its powerful.
