when the largest daily in Texas' capital city

Isn't there only one daily rag left?

He’s a nice enough guy, seemingly so, at least, but I refuse to vote him into office, just because I know he’s been groomed for this. If he’s another Rove lackey, I’ll vote opposite him as much as I can.

Isn't there only one daily rag left?

Well, there's the counterculture rag, the Austin Chronicle, and the student rag, The Daily Texan. Probably about half a dozen Spanish publications read by a total of 31 people altogether.

If you throw the regular commercial rag, the Austin American-Statesman, into that fetid mix, you have a city served by exactly ZERO real newspapers (i.e., newspapers that are run by people whose ideas don't suck out loud.)

There’s a weekly there. Most of it’s ads were “women seeking women” type. I’m sure the internet killed that.

But the Austin American Statesman is an endorsement you don’t want.
