Excellent news!
I want everybody associated with the liberal Democrat newspapers to lose their jobs, their homes, and their families. For what they have done to this country they deserve nothing less. (spit) Screw ‘em all.

If the economic crisis goes on much longer, will there be any newspapers left in the US to write about it?

Who cares? I don't own a parrot or a birdcage.

[chuckles]

If someone gave me control of one of these dead newspapers, I would turn it around in a year. It's easier to print the news than to make up fantasy stories nobody believes anymore. I could pick up stories on the wire services and use FR and Drudge and a few other sources and have the readers drooling to get the next paper. MSNBC keeps Mathews and Olberman and they know as a fact no one is watching, but continue to lose money anyway. Hollywood knows family movies are hits but keep making the same old drivel. It isn't because they don't know,........ it's their religion.

The only reason we are talking about the "Fairness Doctrine" is not because they think it's fair, it's to get the Radio stations to go back to Gardening shows instead of hard politics because they know if they put "balance" on, the knob goes off, so they just play garden shows.( not that there is anything wrong with killing aphids)

How about we get someone in Congress to propose a TAX!

A TAX on NEWSPRINT!

Whereas a large portion of every landfill is used for discarded newspapers and

Whereas the production of newspapers causes trees to be cut down, hauled by polluting trucks to polluting paper mills, and hauled from paper mills to publishers and

Whereas the production of newspapers requires toxic ink and solvents and energy wasting machinery and

Whereas the distribution of newspapers requires the use of dirty internal combustion engines Therefore:

Be it resolved that a Newsprint tax, of $1,000.00 per pound, be charged to EVERY newspaper with a daily subscription, within the United States!

We should get some Republican to propose THIS as an amendment to any “cap and trade” or “carbon tax” proposal that comes up!

What do you think?
