Some of yesterday’s news: the health care bill was delayed; more than 40 people were arrested in New Jersey for a range of corruption charges; (local news) more serious problems were uncovered with the regional subway system; and the DOW climbed back to 9000. Less consequential news (but fun to read) included: a controversy over race between Obama and the Cambridge police; Hillary accelerated her dive into obscurity; and a pitcher threw a perfect game for only the 18th time in MLB history.
So what does the W Post feature as its lead story an hour ago? Sarah Palin’s negatives are up!! And on the same digital front page there’s an op ed criticizing Palin’s position on global warming (or cooling or whatever it is today).
I’ve never seen an industry like the newspaper industry in which companies so willfully alienate half their customers and consciously lower the quality of their product. And btw, if they’re trying to get me to like Palin less, it’s not working.
Yeah, I stopped my print subscription two years ago, and my only regret is that I can’t stop it twice.
It's the organlegging that highlights it.

My (blogging-related) wish list.
A friend of mine lives in Murfreesboro, TN, where the
janis Friday, July 24th at 3:33PM EDT (link)local rag is called “The Daily News Journal”. It’s liberal and is usually referred to as the “Newsless Journal.” She’s a subscriber near the downtown area and has been having a problem with her delivery. The papers aren’t there in the morning when she goes out to get them. Her carrier dropped by to inform her that they’ve been having a serious problem with the paper being stolen in that particular area due to the number of people who walk by on their way to clubs and events.
Her comment? “You’ll never convince me that enough people value this paper to steal it.”
We need to see if Americorp will create the position

The Washington Post didn't cover REAL news...
JadedByPolitics Saturday, July 25th at 10:01AM EDT (link)because as Rush said they are committed to destroying Palin because that is who they FEAR most….it is funny to watch but hey Sarah’s numbers are right where The One’s numbers are so the lamestream media is not stopping the news from getting out that he is attempting to destroy our great country. The next few years is going to be a blast for Conservatives!
Whoever has his enemy at his mercy &
does not destroy him is his own enemy
