I'm sure that in the days before the Internet they got letters like this all the time, but they could pick and choose what they put in their letters to the editors in the print edition so all real criticism was filtered out while they did a kabuki theater of pretending to respond to readers. I continue to remind Ms. Sill every time I post that she no longer controls the dialog and that they'd better figure out how to adapt.

One of my favortite Dinosaur Media quotes came from a former Managing Editor of the defunct Shreveport (Louisiana) Journal, Carl, Liberto. He often said, "news is what your Editor says it is unless the Publisher says it isn't."

Some of them, apparently, must think that's the way it still is...

The internet has changed everything. We can now see how dishonest and lazy the MSM really is.

Having worked in retail most of my life where you have to address customers face-to-face to survive, my pity for them is nonexistent.

Welcome to the club, fellas!
