Eat, Pray and Listen to Labash

Try to picture Labash in this lovely sunflower
patch with Julia Roberts.

The Weekly Standard/Daily Caller‘s Matt Labash has an insider’s view of how to become a political journalistic guru.

Does it involve sexual favors?

“For me it did,” replies Labash in his advice column today. “But everyone’s path is different.”

Most advice on Labash’s list is not terribly serious, but some offers unintentional wisdom. Read slowly and in between the lines.

• Write what you know.

• If you’re a kind, generous person who strives to find the best in people and to overlook their faults, get out of journalism.
