    In retrospect, the Posties should have been worried when they started giving away free copies of the Post with the Journal. If your parent company decides you are worth zero, that's when trouble starts. #newyorkpost

    Obviously now that Murdoch has a new toy (WSJ) he has grown bored of his old stuff.

    Good riddance (although I won't hold my breath just yet). #newyorkpost

    Hell, you want a real voice of opposition, you need a loud-assed, smart-mouthed left-wing rag -- and I mean a real left-wing rag, not like Mother Jones. (spit) I mean, c'mon; if you really think the New York Times is a Leftie paper, you've been living under a rock, like those goddamn' Tea Party assholes.

    Seriously, all we've got is The Nation. That goddamn' self-serious tome bores the living piss out of me. And they don't even have a friggin' sports page, f'cripesake. I'd love a Leftie version of the New York Post. They're a nasty, rightist screed, for sure, but I love their attitude.

    Didn't you all used to have a nice, loud, smartassed Leftie tabloid up there, long ago -- what was it called, PM, or something? #newyorkpost

    When the post is reduced to a hotel room freebie, Col Allan will be promoted to even higher ranks. This is the Newscorp way. #newyorkpost

    The Weingarten column was better than usual for him, and it drew on a close-to-the-surface reservoir of Swiftian anger at what his industry and publication have become. #media

    @Smitros: "The pattern of a newspaperman's life is like the plot of Black Beauty. Sometimes he finds a kind master who gives him a dry stall and an occasional bran mash in the form of a Christmas bonus, sometimes he falls into the hands of a mean owner who drives him in spite of spavins and expects him to live on potato peelings."

    @Smitros: Also: Only old Benjamin professed to remember every detail of his long life and to know that things never had been, nor ever could be much better or much worse; hunger, hardship, and disappointment being, so he said, the unalterable law of life.

    My mother cancelled home delivery of her local paper this spring, after it cut back to printing on three days of the week and expected to get paid the same. Nevertheless, the paper keeps showing up on her porch, and after a few months of being all Hank Hill about it, she's stopped calling the circulation department.

    I assume that it's not her charming personality that causes the circulation staff to comp her. Instead, I suspect that it's a desperate move by the circulation staff of the Booth chain (owned by Advance, and thus part of Uncle Si's collection of money-losing properties) to disguise just how desperate things really are.

    (Hamilton, I'm surprised this didn't show up under printisdead; you're slipping, matey.) #media

    I read the CBS report on Cami McCormack the other day and honestly, it read like an obituary. So I hope she gets better soon because the obit...er, article indicates her to be a totally kick ass reporter.

    I guess you can't expect Ladies' Home Journal to sell too well when the reader base no longer has a home to read it in.

    Well at least we know VF's sales will surely be up, what with that groundbreaking reporting on Jackie O. Plus by hiring Levi Johnson, they've wasted no time finding a replacement for Dominick Dunne. Top notch, guys. Maybe if the ladymags employed some of that type of ingenuity they'd be back on track.

    I just paid 52 usa american dollars in a sub for my local paper for 16 weeks. The paper does no copy editing or proof reading and hires children to write the news, but they aren't sure what news is, so they write down whatever. Some of them are cute, but they can barely spell. I could say more, but I am too nice. The AP once gave me a check for a dollar for some story I wrote, which I still have. The check,not the story. Let's not hear about the word 'cheap' from the AP.

    Isn't this a Seinfeld episode?


    When you try to cancel they should first have a beautiful person try to convince you to stay, and then if that doesn't work, they send you the muscley person.
