In a Vanity Fair article (no online access available), Michael Wolff, a liberal former columnist for New York Magazine, wonders why conservative media hold the edge over liberal media when it comes to humor. Quoth:

Why aren't liberals funny?...The complicated condition for liberals...is that so much of the liberal media has defaulted to a kind of consensus [New York] Times-ness...We are all...self-serious, earnest, striving, humorless, correct people, seeking to become ever more earnest, faultless, evenhanded. We're Hillary (or we're her base, and she's courting us by becoming as worthy and flat as we are)...
Conservative opinionists...are, on the other hand, often facile, funny, irreverent, eccentric, jaunty, pithy, as well as aggressive and wrongheaded...

Question: Do you know any Liberals with a good sense of humor -- besides Bob Salsbury?
