Promises, promises.
I want to celebrate when the NY Slimes, LA Slimes, and Washington Compost close their evil doors.

I wonder how the situation compares in Britain. Many British newspapers (e.g. Telegraph, Times) or actually interesting. You don't feel like you are being fed pablum.

Well too bad. Think of all the trees the enviromentalists will save. Plus we don;t even wrap fish in the newspapers anymore. We have the internet and Fox News now.

Perhaps if newspapers started printing real news instead of all leading with the same AP story (word for word) if might be worth reading a paper again.
I used to love reading the paper, but now, there is nothing in it that I don't already know more about than the paper did when it took the article off the AP wire. The other day, when the Stock Market had the biggest rise in four years, I couldn't find anything about that on the front page, instead I learned from the headlines that the Iraq surge was a failure.

Note to liberal scumbag journos: tick tick tick.
Your obsolescence awaits and there will be no corporate lawyers to shield your treasonous arses from the criminal prosecution you so richly deserve.

I’m guessing TV news can’t be far behind.

Murdoch will buy Dow Jones. And that reporters union at the WSJ is dead meat along with their ultra-liberal bias.

The sharpest declines were for classifieds, where spending dropped 13.2% -- not so much a result of competition from the Web as of economic woes affecting certain categories of advertisers. Boy, these folks really are blind, aren't they?

Perhaps if newspapers started printing real news instead of all leading with the same AP story (word for word) if might be worth reading a paper again. To save money most newspapers have cut reporting staff and rely only on AP. As a result we get only one point of view, the liberal POV. Thankfully, most of us aren't liberals and we stop reading that biased reporting. The internet and talk radio have replace the MSM. They, the liberals and the Democrat Party, will try to eliminate both.

Boohoo. Let ‘em try telling the truth for a change; maybe their revenues would pick up a bit.
