Matt Taibbi's writing is addictive and enjoyable to read as he digs deeper than most journalists (having bigger stones) exposing the charlatains who could care less about the middle class. His verbage is hillarious and quite severe at times, but however he presents his information it cuts to the core and I'm sure that those that he writes about- politicians, large corporations, the U.S government, etc, etc., etc., would like no more than to see him get smacked by a bus. He is, in my opinion, the way journalists should be- get the facts straight and then go directly for the juglar- he's like an Anderson Cooper with razor-sharp teeth and an acid tongue.
If you can't get enough of Taibbi, check out his books:
"Griftopia: Bubble Machines, Vampire Squids, and the Long Con That Is Breaking America"
"The Great Derangement: A Terrifying True Story of War, Politics, and Religion at the Twilight of the American Empire"
"Smells Like Dead Elephants: Dispatches from a Rotting Empire"
"Spanking the Donkey: Dispatches from the Dumb Season"
