This blog is mainly about the spectacular train wreck at The Sacramento Bee and its parent company, the McClatchy Company. But I also post about current events, the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, politics, anything else that grabs my attention. Take a look around this blog, hope you enjoy it.

-University of Missouri-Columbia j-school gets $31 million gift- St. Louis Post-Dispatch
[snip]… The gift will used to set up the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute for [advanced studies in journalism and its role in democracy], which will include a "journalism future laboratory and technology demonstration center." ------------ Out-of-touch alert: J-school money for a dead profession? Exploring dishonest journalism and its role in screwing a democracy? A lab for liars? Old Marxist profs get another vacation in Cuba? ROTFLMAO - W2F
Ha! Last time I heard anything about that propaganda school, old Marxist professor was getting fired from his other job for Plagiarism. 31 million is a drop in the bucket for that case of reputation rehab.
Exchanging Christmas greetings is not what it used to be. I think we have to cut these sad journalists some slack this time of year. A pink slip for Christmas is McLame, as the BO beanie-wearing groupies might chant. ---------------- -Register Closes Weeklies- by Paul Bass The Journal Register Co.… [shuttered 16 weeklies] in Connecticut.....employees were summoned to the New Haven Register building for a meeting on Thursday.....It still stung that the company waited until the week before Christmas to deliver the news.
