....another good article from the Washington Post. Now that Bush is on his
way out, the Post is trying to make up for it's lack of decent writing over the past few years. I'd subscribe again, but seeing Obama's face on the front page every day would get old. Washington Post article: http://tinyurl.com/8vkdox Anyone who lives close to the Bay has little reason to knock someone else's home waters. The Bay is going downhill fast. Actually, many believe it's close to the bottom now. When fishing out there on a calm day, the brown 'dead zone' can be seen easily in the middle of the bay. A good article on the dissolved oxygen problem facing the Bay: http://www.eco-check.org/pdfs/do_letter.pdf Obviously, the trees I had planted in the names of Harry and Jimh weren't enough. -- ** Good Day! ** John H |

Bush Bashing was the forte of the Washington Post. That's why their subscriptions have plummeted. Well, it's difficult to right anything truthful about the most incompetent President in recent history, without looking like you are "bashing". http://tinyurl.com/9nu9st Their net income hasn't looked too good for the past few years. Seeing that you have been asleep the past decade, I'll inform you, it isn't "Bush bashing" that is causing problems with most newspapers. It's the internet. |

It's always a bit of a grin, as it were, to read the political spins of those right-wingers who have swallowed so much of the party pablum that they have a ready but simple-minded and usually wrong rationalization for everything in life, such as "If the Post hadn't bashed Bush so much, the paper would be doing better financially." Certainly the internet has hit the newspaper business hard, as have the 24-7 cable news channels and the increasing reluctance of much of the population to, well, read. Reading a good newspaper requires a bit of time and concentration, and it is much easier to absorb a few sound bites from cable news. Some of the really loony righties on the gun boards are overjoyed at the slide of newspapers, because they believe they'll do better with the general populace by confining "news" to blogs that are easier to control. |

History will show that GWB was a much better President than his predecessor and his father and many others in the preceeding 100 years. http://tinyurl.com/9nu9st Their net income hasn't looked too good for the past few years.

Why are newspapers having problems with the Internet? Could it be that the newspapers have been feeding their subscribers pages and pages of biased crap for far too long? |
