Earlier this week I said McClatchy's motto, "
Truth to Power," no longer applies at McClatchy, given the Obama Boosterism by McClatchy reporters. Readers have been sending in suggestions for a new McClatchy motto. I've reviewed the suggestions and put together a list. (FYI, I took the liberty of modifying some of the nominations.) Here are some of the best ones so far:
- Hindi News -- Your Place for Outsourced Opinion
- Your Dime - Our Slime
- Merging News and Opinion Because We're Smarter Than You
- Think Stink
- Credibility Shot to Expletive Deleted
- The Best News Suppository
- Stalking the Palin Family since 2008
- Choosing Who Runs Your World
- Leave the Driveling to Us
- Yesterday’s News Today
- Telling You What You Need to Know
If you have another nomination, leave it in comments. I might put a poll together so readers can vote on a new motto.
