Noonan is one of the reasons that I won't be renewing my subscription to the WSJ.

I gave mine up when Mr. Murdoch bought it; my guess was that it would quickly run downhill.

I just took a look, and I see that three most prominent stories listed at the WSJ.com website are:

When Alzheimer's Disease Hits at 40

Stimulus, Auto Bailout May Be Delayed

Science of Migrating Rubber Duckies

While I was willing to tolerate the usual silly story or two on the front page, I think this is getting out of hand. When only one out of three stories "above the fold" can be considered news, well, I personally won't pay for such.

Which of of the two is it? (The middle one is obviously out as speculation on the level of phone psychic advice)
