When journalists get too close to the makers of the story’s skein, when their access becomes a giddy ride of power, the ability to faithfully interpret the news unfolding before them becomes impossible. This is a story (as they always say in first paragraphs of the bad feature pieces) about a nation led astray by corruption and intoxication, by the unholy ass-grab in the corridors of power, by the simple delight of cavorting with the magnified personality-simulacras of the elite.
Also we hear the whole Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughan thing is a total put-on.
