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.

-Obama's agenda already losing steam- McClatchy Newspapers March 31, 2009 E. Thomas McClanahan - KC Star ------------ This is a well rounded article. There is some praise, and some criticism of BO, but not the usual in-the-tank writing. If other journos would just tell both sides of the issues, no one would want to lose any source of information. I don’t care if McClanahan is left or right, he is sensible. I see some hope here.
By the end of 2009, who knows who will be working. All I know is that everyone would hate to see the one who organizes the office parties go... It's worked so far. Its a team building activity. Lets start building stronger department teams.
'Hartford Courant' Replaces Publisher -- Combines Newsgathering With TV Stations ------------ The paper and TV station combine newsgathering? That sounds economical, but if one is slanted, the other is useless also.
Cutting back [again] is becoming a common phrase. == Media General is cutting back again in Florida, saying there are no signs yet that the economy is picking up. Its Florida Communications Group [cut 53 jobs], [eliminated] 12 vacant positions, [closed] two niche publications and [added] three more days of [unpaid furlough] to the 10 that employees were already required to take.
PRINCESS KATHLEEN SEBELIUS pays her taxes at long last. What's new? Under no circumstantial is she wanted back in the state of Kansas. Good riddance from Kansas, let the other 56 states deal with the incompetence. Watch the old MSM duck and weave start. This is getting ridiculous, even the hopeless liberals ought to see the big picture any day now.
ANOTHER OBAMA NOMINEE FORCED TO PAY BACK TAXES... @ The Drudge Report also. The cat is out of the bag now, or the bag is out of the bag in this case. She is the pits, the real pits.
OK... I am done with the mindless Obama bashing. Look.... he has a large budget and he is spending a lot of money but his solution to raising money is brilliant.
He will continue to appoint tax cheat democrats until they all pay their back taxes and we will be home free.
Give the man some credit. It is a brilliant strategy. No way these tax cheats would have come clean if it were not for Dear Leader. The man is a genius.
The Tea Parties plans are growing by the day. A good old fashioned tax revolt is what we need. Why should we pay taxes when these so-called elites cheat us ten ways?
I think it is getting difficult for even the in-the-tank MSM to lie away this many tax cheats. How many stories can they spike a day? It is always a small error or miscalculation, odd how that only works for Democrats. I thought Palousy was going to drain the swamp. Clearly, she is the snake in the swamp.
The tax stuff is trivial compared to Sebeljevich's habit of loading the judiciary with cronies and major contributors. Then there was the sellout of KU Hospital to Missouri business interests (speaking of screwing up healthcare).
This woman is one of the biggest political bimbos you will ever see, everything's for sale.
folks, the real men dont hide behind anonymous post and they are the ones who sit in the white house not you.
im willing to bet not one of you would make it through the scrutiny that important people, ( yeah the folks that make real decisions, the tough ones) have to indure. doesnt matter how 'good' you are , all it takes is your second cousin to have a girlfriend whos mother new a man whom might be a terrorist.
im not one of those men, im scared to lose my job if i post my name, that is why i respect both Bush and Obama for what they have and will acomplish. you guys whom are quick to label folks leftist or right wing dont know jack shit and should ask yourself what have you done to make a difference? ....i willing to bet nothing. Now if one of you could come on here with your real name and back up your statements with facts that can be verified then, you deserve an open ear. Otherwise shut the fuck up and talk about mcclatchy>>>oh wait thats right, i must be a leftist trying to control the conversation blah blah blah
maybe i should start a blog about baseball and we can focus on football....yeah thats right, that makes since.
The perpetually offended one says,“dont know jack shit” - “yeah thats right, that makes since.” ------- ‘Sense’ you do know ‘jack shit,’ tell her we said hello. LOL
