    A quick check of der Google indicates that CEP = the Communication Energy and Paperworkers union. CEP's response lambastes TorStar mgmt for dropping this bomb on the newspaper's 117th birthday. #torontostar

    Have you ever READ the Toronto Star? It's really pitched for the kind of people Fran Lebowitz says can't watch television without moving their lips. Undoubtedly, they employ the same. So this is a surprise why? #torontostar

    See, we can be just as snarky as our American counterparts. Just going about it in a more subtle way.
    I'd like to send this unknown editor the memos I get from the head of the company I work for, (incidentally, a rival media conglomerate) they are just as vague and wordy. #torontostar

    I don't know what you're all laughing at. I mean, this really alarmed me. I love my country too, and don't want my organs to organize a coup d'etat, leaving me in a terrible state. #glennbeck

    In the first graf, the proofer's mark indicates a line break for 'townhall' not insert space (which is what I presume he wanted). Maybe they use metric for their proofing or something.

    Wait until the copy editors working in India start correcting "Eglinton Avenue" in all the City Page stories.

    If you watch that one show on Fox less than regularly, when you hear Mara Liasson, you think NPR.

    One assumes that she got her invite because like a lot of Americans, Ms Liasson has been the White House staffers' commuter buddy for years #media
