Joel Stein evidently lacks a conscience to tell him the difference between right and wrong. Or, more likely, he has managed to put his conscience to sleep by ignoring it or violating it for many years. Everyone has a conscience, but it's possible to sink yourself so deeply into evil habits that you can no longer hear it.
It's hard to make someone like that understand the perversity and wickedness of his ways. But perhaps we can make the LA Times understand it. The LA Times is a business operation. It needs subscribers and advertisers. It's not doing very well lately.
That's precisely true. If no one buys the LA Times, no one reads Joel Stein. At least no one that Joel Stein can reach outside of his trolladytic echo chamber.
