"OT; What do you read"


  

          

1. The Wall Street Journal is read by the people who run the country.

2. The New York Times is read by people who think they run the country.

3. The Washington Post is read by people who think they should run the country.

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 smug 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 they did a far superior job of it, thank you very much.

7. The New York Daily News is read by people who aren't too sure who's running the country, and don't really care as long as they can get a seat on the train.

8. The New York Post is read by people who don't care who's running the country either, 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 they stand for. There are occasional exceptions if the leaders are handicapped minority feministic atheist dwarfs, who also happen to be illegal aliens from ANY country or galaxy as long as they are democrats.

10. The Miami Herald is read by people who are running another country, but need the baseball scores.

11. The Houston Post used to be read by government friends, executives and lobbyists of Enron Corporation but they no longer like the news.

People who don't care what goes on in the country so long as they get a bigger piece of the pie.

Great Shelly. I sometimes read the Wahington Post. Their Redskins coverage is better than the Washington Times but the Times editorial spends it's time trying to contrdict the Post. What a country!

these days witht the internet I dont buy a newspaper very often. The internet is perfect for up todate news. When I buy a paper its usually USA today or the Sun Sentinnal. ( A south florida news paper) http://sunsentinal.com I only will buy a paper when Im out haveing lunch somewhere and need something to read. More often I grab the Citylink http://www.citylinkonline.com or Newtimes (free local area newpapers)

nice post shelly!

All main stream media has a corporate agenda since main stream media is owned by corporations. GE, who has manufantured two thirds of the nuclear power plants in the US owns NBC, Disney ownes ABC and refused to air a 20/20 segment about unfair labor issues at Disney World, CNN is a puppet for the Pentagon and fired two of it's reporters for a story about using nerve gas in Vietnam and Fox News fired two reporters for refusing to censor a story about Monsato's bovine growth Hormone in milk.

Today's journalism is institutionalized gutlessness. No one speaks the truth for fear of threatening the governing elite and aristocracy.

For the truth in news read any alternantive news web site on the web. The web is the only place left to learn the truth. Try www.projectcensored.org for starters.

"CNN is a puppet for the Pentagon and fired two of it's reporters for a story about using nerve gas in Vietnam"

Maybe that was because the story was a fraud...
