Although it is shocking to the world The President uses a bathroom, at least there is no evidence of him ever enjoying a cup of coffee.

[Burlem]

It is a media event because democrats don't pee until designated times, don't you know that?

[Churchillspirit]

If the note had read I need to go powder my nose. THAT would have been news.

Quality Problems at Reuters and Atlantic Monthly


An embarrassing leak from the wire agency, and a libelous suggestion from the American magazine.

The Guardian reports today a public embarrassment for Reuters ¯ 'a senior editor's memo that outlined the media and information company's "terrible quality problems"':

In a memo that has led to comparisons with former jeweler Gerald Ratner ¯ who famously described his own company's product as 'crap' ¯ Reuters' global managing editor David Schlesinger wrote: 'Our news is perceived as not having enough insight. Our data is perceived as having terrible quality problems'... The note [was] intended to be sent to 10 senior managers but [was] actually distributed to thousands of Reuters staff.

HR subscribers will remember Schlesinger for another other candid admission ¯ that Reuters appeases Mideast terrorists through the news outlet's choice of language. Reuters, long criticized by HonestReporting for imbalanced coverage of the Mideast conflict, was the ignominious winner of the 2003 Dishonest Reporting 'Award'.
