Why Americans Hate the Media by James Fallows
Advertisements [?]
"Before there was Digby, or before The Assault on Reason, there was James Fallows. When you've got half an hour, read his 1996 piece "Why Americans Hate the Media", wherein you will discover that everything old is new again. If I ran the Washington Post newsroom, I'd make every political reporter read this during their first day on the job, and again annually thereafter." Nicholas Beaudrot

It's by the guy who wrote Breaking the News. I remember reading this when it first came out but its the kind of thing we should all read every few years.
