You got that right! For instance, some of the board of directors who after all are responsible for conducting the affairs of the business for their shareholders. I always heard that a fish rots from the head down.

WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! What about DIVERSITY! Isn't THAT more important to the Times than accuracy? Isn't that what they've hinted?

So how is it that the Times can fire one black guy and let another one resign? These were the ones who broke the lily-white color barrier at NYT.

Jesse Jackson should be there to DEMAND that blacks be included in the hiring process for a permanent replacement. Otherwise, they're just a bunch of racist crackers who won't tolerate anyone in their little club that doesn't look like they do.

Personally, I think they ought to replace Howell Raines with Claude Raines. At least he knew how to make himself invisible...

These two clowns were outlasted by Rush Limbaugh, who today will enjoy at least a moment's gloat. That's really got to chap their asses!

Thanks. Next question: What are the references to "Pinch" about?

His father was Punch...calling him Pinch is either an endearment or a diminutive insult.
