2. That's what they said.

Maybe they are remembering Judy and WMDs.

3. Excellent save.

Very possibly the intent. :D

8. This is the future of journalism?

4. Perhaps it's a morpheme-free nominalization.

Wikileakistically clever.

6. I don't TWEET so I'm confused.

Who wrote the TWEET? Is there any way to know?
Is that a 'Wikileaks ad(?) at bottom, left or does this act as a signature.
I don't understand!!!

12. Thanks.

So essentially a Twitter ACCOUNT identifies where the message comes from. And as I see, there is ongoing chatter...just never bothered to learn what that medium was all about.
Seems a little like online vomitting...no offense to Wiki -
Tweeting appears to be just 'running off at the mouth'.(One of my Dad's fav expressions).

Running off at the mouth, but in short concise statements.

13. Dupe

7. It's still spot-on.

Over the past twelve years, the NYT has gone from being an internationally touted "paper of record" to being a complete nag of a rag.

The last time they called me to subscribe, I told them only their comics and horoscope had any credibility.

10. The NYT may be flawed, but I wouldn't want it to go away

11. IMHO, Judith Miller was part of the over-arching Repub plan to make ALL ESTEEMED media SUSPECT.

IOW: Judith Miller was a Trojan horse.
