  1. Well, if we’re setting age limits for politicians, why stop there? Maybe journalists should be subject to the same scrutiny. After all, the ability to craft a coherent argument and stay sharp might start to fade with age, too. We wouldn’t want anyone over 65 spinning their wheels trying to keep up with today’s fast-paced news cycle, would we? Just imagine the headlines: “Mandatory Retirement for Journalists: Because Staying Witty Past 65 is Just Too Risky.”
