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.

Miami Herald Staffers Give Tips on How to Commit Adultery (NewsBusters)
I'm not sure which is funnier about this Miami Herald story; that Adultery 101 was published in that newspaper or the fact that it was actually written by Herald staffers.
It is so bizarre of a story that it should be marked down as a sign of desperation to attract readers in the midst of a calamitous circulation plunge.
So let us now join the Miami Herald staffers as they present their readers with "helpful tips" on how to commit adultery with a celeb shoutout to Tiger Woods:
So you're left scratching your head, wondering how a guy like Tiger Woods would allow himself to get caught cheating on his wife.
We're not saying we condone Tiger's actions -- the best way to not get caught cheating on a spouse or significant other is to not cheat on your spouse or significant other.
But from observing celeb and non-celeb cheaters from the sidelines for years, following these basic rules would help one cover his tracks.

One would think that if there is anything the fine people at the News Tribune would be expert at, it would be dummies.
