That's 'Professor' Girl

So I started my poli sci class at UC Irvine yesterday--"Politics, Scandal and the Press," and do you love it? It turns out I teach college roughly like I interview famous people: lots and lots of awkward silences broken up by me talking about me. And they will like it! Or else they won't.
Here's the reading list:
All the President's Men, Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward.
The Starr Report.
Firewall, by Lawrence Walsh (independent prosecutor of the Iran Contra affair).
The Family, by Kitty Kelley.
Kitty Kelley is the awesomeness.
Sadly, I already wore my one classy-and-elegant-college-teacher outfit, which means I am going to need another pair of leather pants.

Where's Nick Schou's "Kill the Messenger" on this list. I hear it has something to do with politics, scandals and the press--and it's a quick, easy, read!

You would be a killer professor out here at Hampshire College...lots of my other profs remind me of you. You'd have to brave the weather, though...
