MELINDA LOSSMAN knows how to condense news into easily-digestible sound-bites, and how to spin things to continue her near-exclusive access to the Colton Administration. Beautiful and telegenic, Lossman is a near-ubiquitous presence on the powerful and well-funded PBS, reporting all the news the Administration wants you to hear. With her skinny frame and her perfect hair and teeth, she is the model of bland physical perfection, and she’s sure to dumb down her persona so PBS viewers don’t view her as too ‘elitist.’ While she usually writes her own copy, she prefers to rely on press releases from the government rather than have to do her own footwork following a story.
