Thank you! Anybody who thinks the AJC has a "far right tilt" is seriously deranged. (Of course, it DOES have lousy columnists, but not for the reasons Sugg thinks.)

Sugg is upset because his employers like to make enough money to keep the lights on and the newsprint bill paid. . . . not to mention pay his salary? He must long for the good old days of the Great Speckled Bird.

If he were serious, he would move back up to NYC and write for the Voice. But he can't - he's not that good. And he likes to eat.

So, periodically, he salves his conscience by writing one of these diatribes. His bosses don't mind, so long as he doesn't do it too often.

I still wonder how Creative Loafing makes any money at all. At least people pay to read the AJC. CL is usually just given away. Do they really make that much on the ads alone?

And as for the "far right" tilt of the AJC, now you see the meaning of the "alternative" press: it's something that makes the lefties look moderate.
