Good decent people you say?

How about one of our sports reporters who during a conversation in the newsroom about a nursing home story proclaimed that all these old people were nothing but a burden on everyone. When asked what he thought about his own grandmother and what he’d do if she got sick he replied, in 100% seriousness...

“Then you pay for her. I got better things to do with my money.”

God strike me dead. I am not remotely kidding.

The only good reporters remaining are at retirement age or near it. The rest are agenda driven, self centered idiots that are there to collect a check, get free tickets and move up to a job in government thanks to all the ass kissing stories they write.

Everything you say and cite, I cannot dispute. Based on my 60+ years here on this earth, I’d instinctively say it is all sadly true.

I actually have more respect for a lying, low down snake of a politician than I do have for today’s journalist.
