Nothing compares to the Denver Post. "News" articles are commonly edited, placed, titled, and formatted so as to deceive and manipulate the reader's thought processes for political purposes. This paper is a classic example of pure propaganda.
The San Jose Murky News well and truly sucks.
Poorly reported, poorly written -- a journalistic sub-mediocrity.
"San Jose Murky News"
HAH!!!!
About a year or two after every election, this pile of printed toilet paper has the nerve to rail against the corruption of the New Jersey Democrats in office. Then, in the months before the next election, they completely forget every complaint that they ever had, and print nothing but positive glowing stories about all the great things the Democrats are getting done, and just as importantly, all the horrible things they are doing their level best to prevent the ineffectual state GOP from accomplishing.
Then they endorse all the Democrats heartily for reelection, then a year or two later, they express horror at all the corruption they are witnessing.
Rinse. Lather. Repeat.
The small city newspaper Bangor Daily stinks big.
The Star Tribune single-handedly got the first ever muslim elected to the US congress, Keith Ellison. And they couldn't be more snarky about it.
The Mpls Strib wins the "most awful" award hands down.
The Comical is impressive in its total lack of impressiveness.

I never read the NYT. I do buy the WaPo on Fridays for their weekend entertainment supplement, and usually I take a peek at the rest of the rag. As a result, I have to say that although their news pages almost always tilt towards a conventionally "liberal" world view, they aren't by any means "progressives" of the far-left persuasion. What's more, their Op Ed page isn't at all bad.
Still, the WaPo is truly disgraceful due to their treasonous disclosure of national security secrets -- in wartime, no less. On that score, I guess it's impossible to judge whether the WaPo or the NYT is the greater traitor. But if I were in charge of the nation's justice system, I'd have them both under indictment.
Any paper that carries AP stories.
Okay, so the Houston Chronicle even puts lefty columnists in its Lifestyle section to coach us on diversity matters.
That does not detract from the fact that they carry a lot of good comics!
And they carry some great furniture ads!
I like their athletics-themed funnies--oh wait, that's the Sports section! Well, it is pretty hilarious.
Oh, let us see here...The SF Chronicle, the Oakland Tribune, the SJ Mercury News, the Sacramento Bee, the Santa Rosa Press-DemocRAT, the Reno Gazzette-Journal...
The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinal publishes 'doonesberry' in the regular comics, whereas, 'Dilbert' is in the business section.
And, of course, you know full well how they defended Keith Ellison against those who were concerned about his past ties to the nation of islam, while crucifying Michele Bachmann for merely being a Christian.
Yesterday their lefty editorial cartoonist ripped Fox News Channel for the OJ interview, even though it was never going to be carried on FNC.
Did I mention they carry good comic strips?
