Mornin'.

The first day of fall dawned cloudy. Sayin' mid seventies. It's a start.

The paper really put itsownself out with the airshow photo coverage. One shot of the jets, two of the crowd. Impressive.

Run a local grocery price comparison. Gonna take some time ta go thru it. Got other stuff ta do.

Still miffed with the air show coverage. Made a comment.

I have more photos of the airplanes if Pilot would care to publish them, no charge. Unfortunately I have none of the crowd. I just didn't think to take any during an air show.

Don't know how they'll take it, don't care.

That'll teach 'em ;)

No it won't. They're following a proven strategy - "give the sheeple what they want" - they want to see themselves in the public media, anywhere but the police blotter or the obituaries.

The Wife (known to some as Sweet T Kettle) is a natural with the pocket pistol. She's always pretty near the bottom of the main match scores, but always first or second in the pocket gun side match.

Last I knew you could get a share in the company that owns the Lincoln paper for 50 cents, may have gone up, don't care.  They are so desperate that you have to subscribe to their website.   

Piss off the customers and they quit buying.   That trend started with them long before everyone had the net, they just piss people off.

Coffee is finally on here at work, had to help fight a fire before I could make it, then had to go wipe up all the water I spilled before I set the pot full of water down and got the fire fighting device.    ::)

Ain't talkin' to the paper with the comments. They're directed at the readers.

The paper moved the article puttin' the base in the wrong city after I called it. They put it under 'More' in the Military section. The pictorial was moved to the same place while I was in the shower. One has to dig to find it.

They once ran really nice photos of a storm over the base. Exaggerated the hell out of the speed of the wind gusts. The base is the data collection point for the NWS. The wind gusts were twenty under what they published. It was corrected without comment.

Occasionally, a reader will hit a nerve and the comment will disappear. Hell, I've been on probation twice and banned once.

For every good thing they do, i.e. the work on Norfolk's school board, they do ten stupid. It's what happens when a local publication has no competition. The new publisher is from Maryland.

It's gone to subscription. I'm in on the fat lady's print subscription or I'd be on local blogs.

Oh well, manual labor awaits.......................

The news media have never been high on my list of folks to like.

The job of the news paper is to report. They have long past that obligation. With so many other sources of news. They just fill in the spots around paid advertisments. With whatever the owners will allow. Including their own believes-commentaries and politics and other unproven facts.
Then of course if not for newsman there would have never been a Watergate.

Freedom of the Press comes with a responsibility of printing/reporting the News as it is, first and foremost.
Save the Editorials for the Editors page. This is where the individual (reporter and reader alike) can state their opinions.

... and they take upon themselves to:

* Slant the news by omission
* Sway public opinion
* advance political agendas & candidates

I have 3 uses for the newspaper...that is if I can get it for free ..I won't buy one.

I like to clean my guns on newspaper  ( that in itself, should set the liberals off ( ban newspapers and I can't clean guns )
I use it for paint masking....
& garbage liner ( in fact gun solvent soaked  it keep the #*&%$# Neighbor dog out of the dam cans ! )

Major 2,

All of which are corruptions of the intent/meaning of not only this Amendment of the original 10 Amendment's of the Bill Of Right.
A corruption caused and created by those, for the most part, who dependent on the First Amendment's Freedom of Speech?
 
This is not simply my "opinion".
Think about it!
Every time anyone pays for any NEWS that is not news but political editorial, is paying to keep the garbage going.
They can't sell their version of the news without advertisements. Boycott not only the publishers/editors but those that buy and pay for adds.

Hence the very reason I won't buy one...
However, I'm blind to whomever might advertise, as I don't read them either...
It not the ad that would attract me or my $ anyway....


But I would agree, hit them where they hurt.... in the pocket  :)

as an example I'd offer...

William Randolph Hurst played a huge part in arousing the public opinion to go to war with Spain.
