This all because you cancelled your subscription.

"More good news as another arrogant group of liberal fishwraps lose value."
I would tend to agree, but I'd like to call attention to the following point: among 200 positions to be cut very few (if any) will be of those prominent enough to define these newspapers as liberal fishwraps (James Joyce in "Ulysses" called a Dublin newspaper "Evening arsewipe" - this name would sound better). Those to be laid off in all probability bear very little responsibility for the character of these newspapers.

This is danged good news. I cancelled my Fibune subscription a looong time ago and recently talked with other Republicans who had done the same thing.

Media treachery and manipulation just won't cut it anymore. Haaaa!

"Even birdcages reject the LA Slimes"

I put the Times in my bird cage and the poor thing died of constipation. I guess there are things even a bird will not do.

This is late, but I will add it anyway, especially since I live very near to Chicago:

HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!!!!!!!!!

It couldn't happen to a finer liberal rag POS of a newspaper (unless one counts the Southtown Communist or the Red Star). ROFL!!!!!

I feel a lot better now.

It is never too late to laugh at the Left Wing Fish Wraps as they slither down their snake hole.

I will buy myself a bottle of White Star champagne the day they go under. It is hellish to live in this liberal infested area. God Bless FreeRepublic.

The ex and I subscribed for a few months back in 1987 before I got pissed and that's been it.

Admittedly, I have purchased from newstands and the grocery store the "Clinton Impeached" Slimes (couldn't resist) and probably less than a couple dozen Sunday papers since then.
