US Government [December 11, 2007, 1st period]
There was a lectern in the front of the class with a hastily sketched seal of the President of the United States on in.
Josh lounged behind it, looking over huge stacks of press clippings with the name "Matt Santos" highlighted on all of them. "Okay. We've talked about all of the major branches of government and ignored what the states do because I don't care that much. There is one more group of people we should probably talk about. Their job is to misinterpret everything you do, poke holes in your brilliant programs, and general make your life miserable. They call themselves the Fourth Estate and think they're sooooooo important just because they're protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution."
Josh made a "blah, blah, blah" gesture with his hands. "They are the press corps and a bigger bunch of incompetent alcoholics you couldn't hope to meet. Today, you get to be them!"
He straightened up behind the lectern. "And I will be myself and tell you all why you're wrong."
