Default One must wonder...

"John Q. Public" wrote in message

In message news alleged to have said:

why most of the major media refuse to mention that Spitzer is a
Democrat, although the party affiliation is mentioned ad nauseum when a
Republican is involved in a sex scandal.


Our paper's headline:

GOP calls on Spitzer to resign


It uses those words because they accurately describe who is calling on him
to resign.



No mention of scandal. No mention of whores.


Today's headline? If yes, there's no mention of those things because you'd
have to be living in a cave to have missed the rest of the story.


No mention of Democrats.


Rewrite the story. Pretend you majored in journalism.
