Will Broder be next? He's already gone senile.
Journalists are the scourge of our country. They have this aura of heroes and people's servants; in reality, they deal in artifice and manipulations. They are propagandists and do great injury to our system of democracy with their shading of the truth. The powerful media interests and the Democratic journalists that drive them hide behind the "Free Speech" banner but we know there is no "free speech" here; we, the people, are merely subject to the indoctrination of a privelleged few and are left to discover the truth for ourselves.

Whatever the merits of her personal life, in her columns she came across as a thoroughly nasty person. That made her fit right in at the Washington Post.

All we need now is for Molly Ivins and Moron Dowd to kick off, and we'll have the perfect trifecta......

Does anyone remember the PJ o'Rouke quote along the lines of another old Stalinist about to find out if there is a Creator?
It would certainly be apropos in this case.

"A hospital spokeswoman declined to give the cause of death."
Probably choked on all of that limousine liberal, MasterCard Marxist, class warfare bile she preached for decades.

Say what you will but you know where she stood. No veneer of 'objectivity' unlike the present day crop of clymer columnists.
To: HAL9000
I don't believe in speaking ill of the dead or jumping on graves.
She was wrong about a great many things. End of story.
To: HAL9000
If you can't say anything nice about the dead, don't say anything at all.
