Canzano: Congressional hearing hits like a bag of bricks
A twist at the breakfast table.
I wasn’t surprised by most of what I saw and heard on Wednesday when a line of expert witnesses testified in front of the Senate Commerce Committee.
Nick Saban was predictably strong.
Teresa Gould was expectedly smart.
Gordon Gee was amusing, as always.
I sat at the kitchen table, watching the hearing on my laptop. My 10-year-old daughter ate breakfast beside me, eavesdropping on the festivities, while she crunched on an apple slice. None of what I got from the spectacle was surprising, except for one little question that hit me like a bag of bricks.
“What,” my daughter asked, “are they trying to do?”
