Could WikiLeaks actually be a blow to transparency?

By Richard Cohen
Oct 26, 2016 1:00 AM - Columnist Richard Cohen: Pearl and Harry Cohen, aka my parents, did not believe in transparency. When a big decision had to be made regarding my sister and me, my parents retreated to their bedroom and issued their pronouncement the next morning. They spoke as one.

Trump files for moral bankruptcy

Oct 12, 2016 1:00 AM - Columnist Richard Cohen: Over the weekend, Donald J. Trump did what he always does when things go south for him. He walked away.

Hillary Clinton and the alchemy of turning bribes into gifts

Aug 30, 2016 1:00 AM - Columnist Richard Cohen: Back when I worked for the claims department of a major insurance company, I got stuff. Some of the stuff consisted of tickets to Broadway shows and sporting events, and sometimes I got bottles of booze. I accepted them as gifts. I was, in my own modest way, Hillary Clinton before her time.
Trump's hollow yet damaging charge of fraud

By Richard Cohen
Aug 23, 2016 1:00 AM - Richard Cohen: Trump trails Clinton by an average of nine points in the polls. But those and, indeed, any polls showing Trump falling behind are now themselves being questioned -- although when he was ahead, he adored them.
