The objection is that it's unprofessional. I mean, if course it's amateurish because it's the work of amateurs. Milbank and Cilizza are not professional comedians; they're journalists (nominally). They're amateurs as comedians and unprofessional as journalists.<br><br>The above of course does not even take into account the viciousness of calling Hillary Clinton a "mad bitch." That would be the case for anyone using such language, but how can either Milbank or Cilizza ever write about Hillary Clinton again in a news or analytic political context, having called her a "mad bitch" in a comedy routine?

Everyone has opinions. What I really don't like is journalists pretending their natural. Real objectivity means being transparent about your opinions, then doing your best to report both sides.

True of Milbank, imo. Cillizza, though, has pretensions to being serious with his blog “The Fix.” Ican't take him seriously anymore, though.

My impression of Milbank is that he's more a pundit/columnist than a straight reporter of the news. After seeing this video I probably wouldn't take him very seriously if he tried to do a straight news story. There aren't many pundits I take seriously anyway. Plus, doesn't this compromise Milbank's and Cillizza's journalistic objectivity?

Yes. Plus, doesn't this compromise Milbank's and Cillizza's journalistic objectivity?

Everyone jumping to Hillary's defense needs to get a grip though. Several politicians from both parties were skewered. Is it worse to be a mad bitch than an arctic devil? As comedy it sucked.
