CBS has named John Dickerson to replace Bob Schieffer as host of “Face the Nation.” Dickerson’s mother, Nancy Dickerson, was the first female correspondent on CBS News. He’s been political director for CBS News and writes for Slate.com. Dickerson also wrote a book about his mother called “On Her Trail.” I’m sure John Dickerson is just the right person for this job, but the fact that he’s white, blonde, good looking and male is just so Broadcast News. By network standards, he’s the Face of the Nation. If they only knew…Anyway, congrats !
