    Oh, I'm sorry. You meant to make a POLITICAL STATEMENT, and I pissed all over it. I'm so terrible that way. 8)

    Later, the Chicago papers will go back and try to figure out why its Bears beat writers didn't forsee the team losing in the Super Bowl, when there were indications as early as training camp that it could happen.
     
  5. We're not the ones who treat Anna Nicole Smith's death like the moon landing and put the deaths of soldiers and Marines in Iraq on page 7.

    Good questions raised, all.

    I just need a list of good retorts for the hens in the Lifestyle department. :)

    Oh, please. You go where people are talking, Bookie. Our newsside actually wasn't going to put Anna Nicole on A1 tonight ... fortunately, they gave it a little more thought.

    Wait, so then they did? Because honestly, that is NOT an A1 story. I mean you have to be desperate for news, with like an 8 page front section for that to be A1.

    Of course Anna Nicole is A1, whether you like it or not.

    It's a talker story, and it would be silly to pretend otherwise -- even if you hold her in as little regard as I do.

    (Edit: Because in real life, I do now how to spell Nicole. :-[)
