GONE WITH THE WIND - 2006

"There was a land of Publishers and Editors called the Newspaper Business... Here in this pretty world Journalism took its last bow... Here was the last ever to be seen of Reporters and their Enablers, of Anonymous Sources and of Stringers... Look for it only in books, for it is no more than a dream remembered. A Civilization Gone With the Wind..."

With apologies to Margaret Mitchell...

Reilly, a real-estate investor and former candidate for mayor, filed an antitrust suit in July against Hearst Corp. ... in an effort to stop a partnership between the two newspaper companies that he claims will harm newspaper competition and diminish choice for readers and advertisers.

Can you say this with a straight face in these times of the Internet? Do these guys even believe their own claims?
