In the News
Driving today I was listening to Fox Talk radio and found that The New York Times was flogging week-end subscriptions. Either they've realized they're for entertainment only, or it's arrogant or stupid. No matter which they're not getting my money since I don't have a bird.
Walsingham noted that the NYT merely reported gossip on Sarah Palin, leaving it to the bloggers to do the work. But not only bloggers: recall that The National Enquirer was the only one to report on the libido of John Edwards. The--cough, cough--"quality" papers didn't, no doubt not wanting to soil an accredited liberal, or report on the soil he'd thrown on himself.
I can see a trend. It won't be long until you tell someone something sensational and hear, "Get outta here! I don't believe that. Where'd you read that? A broadsheet?"
