 | David Broder -- Washington D.C. USA, 10.0k to 15.0k
David Broder, a national political correspondent reporting the political scene for The Washington Post, writes a twice-weekly column that covers an even broader aspect of American political life. The column, syndicated by The Washington Post Writers Group, is carried by more than 300 newspapers across the globe. Broder has been called "the high priest of political journalism," by author Timothy Crouse, "the unchallenged 'dean' of what many political reporters like to think is their 'priesthood,' " by U.S. News, and "probably the most respected and influential political journalist in the country," by columnist Richard Reeves. Esquire said Broder "has few challengers as the most influential political journalist in the country," and media critic Ron Powers on CBS-TV said, "Broder is not famous like Peter Jennings, he's not glamorous like Tom Brokaw, but underneath that brown suit there is a superman."
