The placeholder DA in Santa Clara County invited her husband to sit in on one conference, maybe more, regarding a certain murder prosecution. The DA's husband was coincidentally working as a consultant for the family of the victim in the crime under discussion. I think, in all fairness, she did explain that she was merely protecting the taxpayers by insuring public office furniture was utilized to the max.
What I actually read every morning on the subway is the Times' iPhone web app. I just make sure to have the newest and most emailed stories downloaded before I get on the train. Sadly, it wasn't an option in their survey.
This is the most logical cul-de-sac of a post. Who should they survey? And even if the wanted to survey someone else, how could they? Should they ask the Post if they can borrow their Web site and ask their readers? Besides, it's pegged to a Times story, and meant to engender participation from the Times' site's readers.
Are you and Cook in some kind of bizarro think tank for bad Times post ideas?
They wouldn't have hired Paris Hilton for the event anyway, and does the Westin family have anyone with experience fucking in public? I rather think NOT!
@Uncle_Billy_Slumming: It's a still from a home movie Michelle Malkin made of herself jumping up and down on a trampoline in order to demonstrate that, like global warming and evolution, gravity itself is a liberal hoax because no matter how much she jumped and jumped and jumped, her uterus didn't prolapse into her knee socks like an aborted kitten.
And they wonder why journalists don't read their blogs for news value.
I'm guessing most of those journalists have read Malkin's blog once. But it's kind of like going on a blind date with a boring, stupid loser; you chalk up the time spent to open-mindedness, and firmly resolve to spend your hours more productively in the future.
There are conservative blogs offering real news and analysis? Where? Once the "Obama is a Communist Muslim, Bill and Hillary Clinton are responsible for everything wrong with America" crazies are eliminated, what remains?
@City_Dater: That was my reaction. It's hard to imagine any serious media outlet giving real consideration to frothing xenophobia and religious crusades as a viable counterpoint to actual politics.
Reading MichelleMalkin.com is like rubbernecking at a psychological 10 car pile-up on the freeway. You know nothing good will come of it, but you can't look away.
Talking Points Memo features original reporting and analysis from a liberal perspective. MichelleMalkin.com is the crazed rantings of a racist psychopath. This is like saying "twice as many journalists read The Weekly Standard as pay attention to the Black Hebrew Israelites who hang out in midtown."
