Washington week in review

To: PBS From: Pam Hammond Re: WA Week in Review I am so disappointed the the “new” programming. To my mind, Jeffrey Goldberg sets the wrong tone in the role he has taken on as moderator. He dominates the conversation. He interjects his opinions, often in a jokey manner. He clearly takes positions on topics that are being discussed. I am wondering if partnering with the Atlantic for economic reasons was dependent on his assuming this position. In the past, I have enjoyed and benefited from crisp, sound analysis of current and pertinent political and social events. The role of the moderator is a critical component in providing a low key direction of the discussion. Many have excelled in this position in the past. The whole program has changed….and not for the better.
