How Journos Handle Al, Tipper Split

Journalists – TV, print and online – are having strong, sometimes extremely emotional reactions about the Al and Tipper Gore separation:

“Leave them alone, just leave these people alone.” –MSNBC “Morning Joe” Host Joe Scarborough on the separation up Al and Tipper Gore on Wednesday morning’s program. …”If you bring that up again I’m going to go lay down.”

“Tip O’Neill was right. They have a right to their separate hearts.”–MSNBC “Hardball” host Chris Matthews on Monday night’s program.

“I should know better, but Al and Tipper Gore, you are bumming me out; is there hope for any of us? (And who would’ve bet the Clintons wld be the couple left standing?)”
–Politics Daily Editor-in-Chief Melinda Henneberger in Tuesday Facebook post.
