How to report the news

Note: due to language this one is “PG-13″ or so.

    Laura, that’s fantastic. Sadly, I think it describes a fair amount of what’s right here on 7WD. At least I admit it?

    Anyway, I’ll share this as a post. The blogospheric trope should be exposed for what it is — just about as predictable as so-called mainstream media.
