The Guardian and Salon teaming up with the Dims.. I'm shocked.. My favorite part though is this: Salon, founded in 1995, has established a solid reputation as a credible journalistic voice on the Web, though as a business it has never been profitable.
Gee, I wonder why such a 'credible journalistic voice' has never been profitable?

BTW, long time lurker, first time poster.. Have at it!

The Website, which bills itself as "the largest independent news organization in the country"

Apparently not all that independent anymore, if they ever were.

I wish someone would keep all the leftists busy by working to repeal the 22nd Amendment, so we can elect Bush to three or four terms.

David Talbot... any relation to Strobe "One-World" Talbot, I wonder?

Mehtinks they should have identified themselves as a fiction-based website instead.

So Salon found themselves a money boy. Now they can pay off their unpaid White House account via old Soros himself.

I think they still owe the White HOuse $25,000 +, since the Clintons days.

I think Salon.con even amazes the libs that it's still around. Not all of those subscribers pay the full $35. Not much has been written about it's finances in recent months. This is the latest;

Less Than Ten Cents on the Dollar ( Salon.com owes the White House $, can't pay )

Who'd pay for that drivel anyway? Even the RATs won't even subscribe.

"Salon, founded in 1995, has established a solid reputation as a credible journalistic voice on the Web, though as a business it has never been profitable"
In a similar vein, it has been announced that FastCoyote has a solid reputation as the smartest human in the universe, though as a business person he is flat broke.
Tis a shame I could find no one to dump millions into my schemes, as Salon has so ably done.

Was not "Air America" The CIA (front)airline of choice in Viet Nam when Kerry was winning the war, singlehandedly.

I wonder how many of Moveon's "2 million" members are actually in-country.

Salon, the Guardian, Move on, and Air America.

Now that's what I call a quadruple barf alert.

Welcome to FreeRepublic. You picked a hot topic for your first post.

When I heard yesterday that "Squid" Blumenthal had wangled a job as Washington Bureau Chief for Salon, the announcement here that Salon had married up with other lefty institutions which actually have some money, made perfect sense. "Squid" is always looking out for number one, and that means his nest has to be feathered or he doesn't sign on.

As for the jouornalistic approach this troika of lefties will apply, keep in mind that "Squid" has been a wh*re since he first signed on with Billyjeff Clinton, and he hasn't changed his stripes since then. Nothing but lies, 24/7, is the predictable output of this outfit.
