Local columnist SLAMS me in the newspaper!!!!!
Apparently, this pinhead reads GD! :evilgrin: :bounce:

-snip-

But what disturbed me were two comments, one from somebody called Zomby Woof stating, "The Torrance Daily Quease. I don't read that rag."

Well good for you, Mr. Woof.

5. Here's the sad part
He is the LIBERAL columnist in a RW paper... so he must have taken umbrage with my MAD Magazine-style name for the paper. Nini's Mom spotted it today and passed it along. :D

I almost feel sorry for him, but it was HIS choice to work there.

8. Why should he care
what some namelss goof on the Web calls the local paper. That's so juvenile.

(Not that you're really a nameless goof.) ;-)

17. The columnist is a fool
Meanwhile, this same column got picked up by a Web blog called demo-craticunderground.com. A blog is, of course, reporting without any oversight at all. In fact, I'm not certain that it is legal for this site to use my column without permission. What am I, content provider to the slacker world? Still, my stuff drew several immediate responses.

Perfectly legal, Mr. Bogert — unless reprinted in its entirety. And even then, copyright laws are open to interpretation, as newspapers (including their web sites) reserve only first-printing rights to their content.

In addition, DU is not a "blog," it's a forum. Most people who've used the internet for more than a few months understand the difference. The only things that are "reported" here are those linked from news sites. The rest is opinion.

Finally, singing the praises of the newspaper for which one writes is amateurish and best left to publishers, who care little about good journalism.

But, what do I know? I was a columnist only as an adjunct to my job as a city editor.

P.S.: How'd you like some debris from the "slacker world" shoved up your ass? Trust me; it can be arranged.

25. It apparently is a RW paper
It's part of Copley, a small chain whose flagship is the notoriously right-wing San Diego Union-Tribune.

If you ever want to know who owns what papers or teevee stations... http://www.cjr.org/tools/owners/

27. It's defintitely right wing
I cancelled my subscription to them years ago because their editorials, etc.. drove me nuts. They ALWAYS endorse right wing candidates and issues during election time etc..

I don't miss reading that paper at all.

32. Wish I had written an essay
If I knew he was going to be so offended by my quick hit, I would have given him something to quote out of context. But I have to admit it's an accurate quote. :evilgrin:
