    I've seen this site mentioned here, and checked it out for the first time.

    Can someone explain exactly what this is? Basically just another blog that rips the mainstream media mercilessly every day? Is this guy in the business? Just a reader?

    Not passing judgment on him. Just wondering what the site is and entails.

    It's the best site there's ever been.

    Or at least it will be at some point.

    It's better than Cats! People want to see it again and again!

    Wenalway? That's the word in The Tokens' song "The Lion Sleeps Tonight."

    Hush, my darling, don't fear, my darling
    The lion sleeps tonight
    Ah, wenalway, ah, wenalway, ah, wenalway, ah, wenalway

    Never saw it until someone mentioned it the other day. Haven't read through all of it, but I agree with most of his points about the failures and foibles of today's corporate newspapers. Obviously, there are still a lot of people out there doing good work. But there's plenty more of the crap he's ranting about.

    I'm pretty sure the FBI and at least a half dozen mental facilities are monitoring the site and are ready to swoop in at the first sign of unimbomber-like behavior.

    I assumed that at first, except the lyrics are "Wemoweh x4."

    You seem to have a different view of how the law enforcement community works, Ragu.

    But then, we've seen that theme in your previous works, such as: "Steroids: Everyone's Guilty" and "HGH in Your Back Yard."

    I think the site offers sharp, biting, accurate commentary on the biz.

    Agreed. Whether his persona on this board rubs some the wrong way, Dye can rant quite intelligently on the fucktards in this business.
