One can pay a news reader millions per year in salary but that doesn't necessarily make the news readers personal advice worth taking.
Tom Brokaw for example wrote an op-ed piece in todays NYT pushing the idea of consolidating New York states 10,500 local governments into one large agency administered at the state level. What could possibly go wrong? How many people in New York would like more central control from Albany? Governor David Paterson for one would like it. And I'll bet the labor union bosses that put Tom up to the op-ed piece are at least one other.
