Just once, I'd like to see some wealthy conservative buy a major daily newspaper, and make it unabashedly conservative.

And just see what happens.

Granted, it's probably not the wisest business idea one could come up with...but you gotta wonder: would it work?

I mean, look at what Fox News did to CNN just by being centrist-to-slightly-conservative.

"...in the ongoing story of Seattle as a two-newspaper town,"

Yeah, Seattle is a two paper town just like Madistan is a two paper town, in both towns the two papers are owned by the same people and both papers are liberal. One comes out in the morning, the other in the afternoon, other than that it is a distinction without a difference.

They are trying it in Philly with the Evening Bulletin. I don't think it's working but that has more to do with news content and resources than politics.

This is good. Bulldoze the rubble, lower the 'noise' in the area -- and clear the way for just such a Conservative paper.

People are hungry for the truth.

LA used to have 2 newspapers until a "forever" strike closed one of them down. Wonder where those guys are working?

The PI makes the Stranger seem respectable (and conservative) by comparison!

I would love to have been in the room with the editorial staff when they heard the news! Last year about this time, I had the displeasure of accompanying a conservative legislative candidate into the PI editorial review chamber.

They were so sickeningly "progressive" their bodies have begun the metamorphosis into a new species. Everyone of their foreheads sloped to the left and they had terrible vision, damnedest thing I've ever seen. Scary.

*whisle* Over here...the Newspaper Preservation Act of 1970. The law was designed to maintain multiple editorial voices in markets that might not otherwise support more than one major newspaper...and we're still stuck w/ LHL & LCJ.

You're right, The Seattle Times is conservative compared to the PI. Also, the Times attorneys are conservative compared to the PI attorneys.

He's called Rupert Murdoch. The paper is called "The New York Post"

It dawned on me the other day when I picked up the News Tribune that I already knew most of everything in it. Other than local news I get all the news on the internet.

Newspapers are becoming obsolete. They no longer have a "captured" audience.
