    And maybe the SF Chronicle. Not good at all for any of us.

    But is the cr@p we read here better than a print newspaper. Sure it is NOW! but is it really thought out over a real news cycle to print with multiple inputs? I think not. Remember the belly buttons and @$$holes.

    Nobody covers local news better than newspapers. There are plenty of sources available for national and international news(some better than others) buy where else do you go for information about your own town?

    I know that advertising is today’s bread and butter of a newspaper. Frankly I don’t like reading my news in small paragraphs between large adverts. I’d pay a little more for a paper if it would do the trick, but it won’t. Any way when I’m through reading, even the adverts, the off button beats a trip to the garbage bin.

    This cartoon says a lot! The “free press” has been asleep at least since 2003 when the Bush administration alerted the Idiot Congress of problems with Fannie & Freddie. It appears the “free press” has been in the tank for a lot of politicians who didn’t want to upset the political contributions cart. It’s no wonder few take them seriously.

    ANandy, seems you have more of a problem with the GOP Congress…
    I had a problem with Bush & Cheney avoiding the press for 8 years!
