That job's my bag, bay-bee!

 

Not that imaginative. Gannett's been doing it for several years. Pretty sure the basic model is pay the reporter less than a normal reporter, and require him to put thousands of miles on his own car, with shitty reimbursement.

Mojo Pack has great potential as a sexual euphemism.
Just sayin'

 

Also sounds like the fan club for Mojo Nixon.
