Tide of Lies Swamps NY Times: Employees Riot and Steal Office Supplies

Yes, I know. As my uncle who was a publisher told me long ago, "The best time to find a typographical error is immediately after a book has gone to press." The same applies to the Internet, in the nanosecond right after you click the "Submit" button.

Hehehe...exactly right! It's absolutely amazing. I am a scientist now, formerly a newspaper editor, and I admit nearly reaching into the realm of pseudoscience to explain the absolute impossibility of catching every typo prior to press. There's some dark magic about that fact...some ancient curse, I swear!

BTW, if you don't use it, you lose it. I think my staff would be appalled to see my writing now--not that editors ever COULD write!

I think we should start blaming Thomas Jefferson. He should have spent money for the levees instead of sending Lewis & Clark out west.

Brother Billybob, you need to visit this forum and give 'em hell for a while. the "romper room" gang

"Where is Hillary when you need her? </sarcasm>"


You're confusing levees with dykes....

[gusopol3]

maybe that's why he's slipping off the edge of the new nickel

Thank God for you!! and others, who can shed some humor while shedding light on these immoral "journalists? LOL

In addition the levees did not break where they were vulnerable. I would also add that the Gov of LA did not get her guard in place, and did not call for assistance and to let feds know it was that bad, and when she finally did, it was too late.

Available in the Federal Register under what title,
heading, or document number, etc?

...in the nanosecond right after you click the "Submit" button.

That brief period of time is also known as an 'oh-no-second'. :=)

It's all well and good to point this out - but it so doesn't matter. It's attempting to reason with rabid animals. As someone who's basically atheist/agnostic, I'm wondering if we've become so secular that we've simply lost touch with the concept of fate and misfortune. There's not always someone to blame for every bad thing that happens.

Perhaps you might ask the poster who posted this clip.

I absolutely hate the NYT.

They are the biggest liars and haters of American there is.

Worse than commies, worse than spies..they are supposed to be our own.

[the invisib1e hand]

love the thread title.

[Congressman Billybob]

I did go over there, to "give 'em Hell." Based on the garbage they have on their threads, my post was probably either censored, or pulled. LOL.

[Congressman Billybob]

Thanks. I had fun with that.

Nah, its still there, but they won't answer it. They are typical elitist dims, smarter than the rest of the world, but they can't hold their own on any real national debate board, so they congregate there to break their arms patting themselves on the back.

Rogue, Berg, Scorpiaux and MEME are the worst. BTW, there is very little censorship there. I haven't seen a post removed for months.

[LachlanMinnesota]

But so often the first paragraph of new stories is in fact heavy dull metal -- mostly brass.

[driftless]

I expect the Slimes, the Compost, etc. to intentionally misreport stories. I find it laughable that anyone should expect the truth to emanate from any of these shameful liberal organs. I'm sure many of these libs were secretly shocked to find the extreme level of incompetence found in the actions/inactions of the Dem governor and mayor of NO. Of course their reaction in any bad circumstance is to blame a Republican for the harm a Dem caused. Nothing ever changes.

[SpinyNorman]

The NYTimes loots the truth and prints what is left.

The entire paper is one big liberal op-ed page. Objectivity is out the window.

What a waste of trees. Hell, what a waste of recycled paper!

How many refugees are now being housed in Hyanisport, the Hampton's and Jeckel Island? Not to mention Hollywierd and Malibu.
