A good friend of mine said that the Toledo Blade should be called "Coins and Boings" because all it talks about anymore is the Tom Noe/Bob Taft coin scandal and catholic sex abuse cases. I think they had a competition against the NYT/Abu Ghraib about how many times in a row they can repackage the same news with a new titillating headline. Having had some indirect experience with their reporters, I can safely say they are almost entirely unethical SCUM that will do and say anything to get a story -- but I think that's SOP for most major papers these days.

You are correct that the NY Slimes re-reported and re-re-re-repackaged the AbuGhraib stuff ad nauseum.. And the Boston Diocease/Priest scandals... One would think they had an agenda, eh? Seems that you are telling me that The Blade is no better. That's sad. Once upon a time it was worth reading. But the Peach Section was really peach back then ;-)(Assuming that there still IS a Peach Section... )

Oh come on. Surely there are others old enough to remember a peach Peach Section... I can't be the last remaining .... Hello, is anybody out there...

Don't you recall the DAILY front-page articles & editorials crucifying smokers , belittling small business owners, and pushing to keep the total smoking ban?? For once, the sheeple actually gave Block the finger & voted a sensible amendment to it. That was the first time In my life I've ever seen the paper not get its way. There's no newspaper in the entire U.S. better at brainwashing.
