Omaha World-Herald isn't fit for lining a bird cage

Back in my day, the dark ages or thereabouts, many called it the Wierd Harold, but those were the commie pinko hippy types, claiming it was biased in favor of Republicans and Tricky Dick. But when I've read it of late, I'd say your assement is correct. Imagine what the Lincoln Paper, which was liberal even then, is like now. :)

'Bout the only thing that hasn't changed since then is that Ernie Chambers is still a state Senator. Sheesh.

Quite an interesting history at the O-W-H. My mother-in-law has worked there for over 25 years. The editors & publishers have never hesitated to ingratiate themselves with the local "captains" of industry (U.P.R.R., Mutual of Omaha, Con-Agra, etc.).

Like any media outlet, they aren't in the business of news reporting. They are in the business of selling advertising, yet they tout all these "principles" and this "journalistic integrity" crap, and rarely do they ask the difficult questions, lest they napalm a political bridge that the O-W-H leadership has spent decades maintaining. That said, I still love Nebraska, as it is as good a place as I've found to raise a family. If we could just get the CCW legislation passed......Freegards,
