LONDON (AP) -- Financial news and information provider Reuters Group PLC reported an 8 percent decline in sales for the third quarter, but said revenues for the full year might fall by less than the company had expected.

Below, you'll see the most adequate use for the New York Times and Reuters news reports:

The Times and Reuters reports make great kindling for your next cookout!

Reuters is an out and out shill for all forms of Islamic/Paleostinian propaganda. They are the worst, using many Arab "reporters", stringers and photographers.

Great News!

May they have nothing but bad financial news until they fire everyone and close their doors.

Another prime example of a left wing/anti American news outlet that hammers our country, our economy and our president 24/7/365.

Good people say no more and stop using them as a news source.

Good news as this Pro Islamofascist/Anti American propaganda outlet suffers even more financial losses.

I look forward to the day when we can urinate on its grave, the NY Slimes, the LA Slimes, and of course the DNC daily spin posing as news outlets, ABCNNBCBS!

News business is insignificant part of Reuters empire. They take in money from financial information, not reporting on world affairs.

Why don't they just make up and sell MORE anti-American fiction?

Reuters Group PLC reported an 8 percent decline in sales

I wonder if that has anything to do with their decision to substitute
'afterlife facilitator associate' for terrorist?

As you since about 9/12/2001, the word terrorists is forbidden in any Reuters BS article where Islamokazi Terrorist killed innocent people in an 'afterlife facilitator associate' action as you noted.

I have a pre planned coffee shortage and it is impacting the old cns:

"As you since about 9/12/2001" should be as you know.

Reuters is in the toilet--how apt.

The NYTimes lines our trash unread, free absorption for gar baj.

Propaganda organs for the ash heap holding Volkischer Beobachter.

Reuters has slowyly been sinking into the toilet since 9/11.

Many Americans have become very aware of their anti American/GW slant and lies.
