More on Newspapers! OT
 
Couldn't resist putting this out here for some pot shots. Sent to me by an
English teacher friend.

*
* 1. The Wall Street Journal is read by the people who
* run the country.
*
* 2. The Washington Post is read by people who think
* they run the country.
*
* 3. The New York Times is read by people who think
* they should run the country, and who are very good at
* crosswords.
*
* 4. USA Today is read by people who think they ought to
* run the country but don't really understand the
* Washington Post. They do, however, like their
* statistics shown in pie charts.
*
* 5. The Los Angeles Times is read by people who
* wouldn't mind running the country, if they could spare
* the time, and if they didn't have to leave L. A. to do
* it.
*
* 6. The Boston Globe is read by people whose parents
* used to run the country and did a far superior job of
* it, thank you very much.

* care who's running the country, as long as they do
* something really scandalous, preferably while
* intoxicated.
*
* 9. The San Francisco Chronicle is read by people who
* aren't sure there is a country .... or that anyone is
* running it; but whoever it is, they oppose all that
