I don't watch much C-SPAN these days, but I caught the last part of this one this past Wednesday:

Close Up Foundation with Chris Matthews, Host, “Hardball With Chris Matthews”

The State of American Media:

Matthews sounded 'relaxed' and 'honest' when he answered questions from students. The show focused on the media and it's affects (efforts thereof) on public opinion. Matthews talked a bit on everything from the Clintons, Gore,
GW Bush, 911 and Enron(right about the middle... when I started watching it). He admitted that everyone was involved with Enron and even "by association", that that would hurt (the Republicans).
