Poor Peter Marcus, Denver Daily News Staff Writer. The Democratic National Convention is in town and he's reduced to blogging about the cool kids at the prom while jotting notes in the gym corner. On the Daily Show gang, he writes wistfully:

"Laughing and playing with each other, the 'correspondents' seemed to have some of the best jobs in town. Of course they were too busy for an impromptu interview with the Denver Daily News. Boo-hoo-hoo!"

Meanwhile, Inside the convention center Daily Show alumnus Mo Rocca, on assignment for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno scored some face time with Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean:

"As the two chuckled back and forth with one another about Democrats and the convention, the mob of reporters descended once again — piggy-backing on the interview."

Listen, if Mo Rocca is taking the point position on a "get," it's time to stop gazing at your Keds and get in that circle with the other carrion feeders. You're not just a winner, dammit, you're a JOURNALIST.  MAN UP.
