9. If you subscribe
write them and tell them you're considering cancelling, if you don't subscribe, but buy the paper daily write them and tell them you won't buy their paper anymore if they don't balance it better. They may not care, but you'll feel better.
You could also tell them that you represent a group of 25-50 people.

7. He Should Hang out With LA Times' Ramirez..
Edited on Fri Jul-09-04 11:25 AM by impeachdubya
Stupid, Jingoistic, One Note Ad Hominem Attacks... Ramirez did one of anti-war protesters before Iraq started that literally had as it's "point" that anti-war protesters were dirty, unemployed, and some of them (gasp!) even listen to the Grateful Dead.. I mean, that was the whole gag. Not any intellectual content whatsoever, just "look how ugly I can draw the people who disagree with me"... Nimrod.

10. Sun-Times is run by Hollinger Intl.
Which has landed in quite a bit of hot water for corporate misdealings. The Jerusalem Post was one of Hollinger's holdings and Perle and Kissinger were on the board of directors. Nuff said.

8. I ignore Higgins. He's an idiot.
Having said that, today's edition of the S-T's is great. Lot's of goofy stuff. I was laughing on the train all the way in.

Did you see today's "In the Bleachers"?

11. Sick yes, but it's par for the course
I don't read the Sun-Times except occasionaly on-line. Also, I see a lot more anti-shrub cartoons in general.
