Actually, I thought the NY Times article on here said she was a Dr of
"Physiology"....

i.e...The right bone's connected to left bone....etc, etc...

(Which is even *less* connected to what she does on the air...I believe
it is somewhat disingenuous for her to invoke her title in an area where
it does not fit.  With that in mind...I always wondered what David
Brudnoy's Doctorate is in.  Possibly something like Middle East
lieterature?  Which would of course qualify him to comment on
Massachusetts politics, right?)
