All the News That's STOOPID

ABC News tonite actually ran a story (in the segment called "A Closer Look"!) about how the foreclosure crisis is affecting pets. I shit you not. Good to know that there aren't news stories affecting, I don't know . . . people anywhere in the world. Like food riots, wars, etc. Good to know that there's enough time in a 22 minute broadcast (minus the pharma commercials) for "a closer look" at this story.

Not to beat a dead horse, but the story didn't even have any data. It was just human interest and a visit to an animal shelter. So it was piss-poor coverage of a stupid issue.

Is all this bitterness the reason you dropped Adam Dunn two weeks into the season?

Yes. I needed a scapegoat and determined that it had to be an underperforming outfielder.

But it might not be easy for those in first place to understand the feelings of those mired in last place. Elitist!

Yes, the MSM's philosophy of "All the News that's SHIT to print" is tedious and embittering. And Hillary attacking the O-man from the right is bordering on the unforgivable.
