You have foreigners betting on US election results when their only source of information is the American press. How good would Americans do betting on European elections getting their information from Pravda?

Bingo.

I've read better stuff in the British Guardian than I have in most of the big U.S. papers and its staff is slightly to the left of Trotsky. If the staff of the NY Times decides to decline its status as a partner in government and become journalists again, that could change, but I'm sure not holding my breath.
