Thank you for posting the Media Nuggets. I look forward to reading them every Sunday. I am also wondering just how much money does the NY Times get from government monies? For example, how many subscriptions for libraries, colleges, government offices, etc are paid for by us taxpayers? I am sickened to think that the majority of the paper's money might be coming from the very government that they are trying to destroy.

More proof, if any needed, that FOX is not a conservative news outlet. I'm so glad that I stopped watching them.
