Comment on The Salad Days: Political News and Views in Tennessee

Nowhere in the discussion of where to bring the Movers and Shakers for a meal is there any indication that their preferences were considered. It appears the news manager was eager to eat a salad at her publisher's expense. If she had indicated that the wearers of big wigs had expressed a deep craving for a salad served by Aunt Jemima and Uncle Joe to the tunes of a minstrel show but she had skillfully talked them into settling for the Cumberland then that would have been defensible. As it was the sources she was roping into her expense account padding scheme might have been happier with a quick burger or a half hour with the young police reporter.
