    In reply to Wall Street Journal Takes on Local News
    Well, I have been wondering what's going on at Community Board meetings in Ridgewood.

    But seriously - why take a perfectly good business and finance paper and turn it into something else? #wallstreetjournal

    @daveyjonesisdead: Yes, the city is hungering for another general interest newspaper. Just ask the former employees of New York Newsday and the Sun. #wallstreetjournal

    Before we start breaking out the examples of squeaky clean hip-hop, let's just remember that hip-hop can be about having to strong arm a ho and also still be REALLY GOOD. Art is about many perspectives. #hiphop

    Hip-hop. Over.
    As soon as 'mainstream' theater people get excited about some aspect of popular culture, it's a safe bet that no one else cares about it anymore. #hiphop

    I think I just committed a foul in the rear of my exposed Marc Ecko underwear. I wonder if he'd be eligible for funding since his hip hop culture empire is slipping like the draws of a Bed Stuy teenager walking along Halsey St. #hiphop

    I'd think that the conservative forces would be fine with the guns and the glocks part at least. Probably wouldn't object much to homophobia or misogyny either. #hiphop

    Oh, Rocco, nice way to serve up a wedge issue going into the midterm elections.

    Also, don't at least some hip-hop arts have a viable commercial base in ways that, say, most literary arts do not? #hiphop

    @Smitros: I'm guessing they won't be giving grants to signed recording artists. That would be like giving Stephen King money to write his next book. #hiphop

    @Cicada:

    Yes -- when theater people talk about hip-hop, they mean Danny Hoch and anyone else who ever rhymed his way through a one-man show at a major not-for-profit (in front of white people paying $60 a ticket). #hiphop

    I smell a trend!

    Next time I see any urban youths I'll ask them if they have any "wedge issues." #hiphop

    Netflix for magazines sounds like a horrible idea, but I refuse to believe that magazines are totally screwed; computers are much harder to take into the bathroom. #media
