Were the "optics" of the Mueller hearings worth the media's attention? "Let's be real," Susan Glasser says, "of course it was." After a "nutty" week in politics, the author of The New Yorker's "Letter from Trump's Washington" column talks about Mueller coverage; the impeachment count; and what to do about Trump's distortion field of lies. "It's on us as journalists," she says. "Our job is literally to bear witness." She also says the week showcased how the "right and left now are so deeply dug in to their respective information bubbles."
