Reply #14: Today's Chron = the old Hearst Examiner [View All]

[robertarctor]

Remember that Hearst sold the Examiner and bought the Chronicle a while back, from the de Young family. A lot of old Examiner hacks ended up moving to the Chron. And the paper's editorial board is more tilted right than the news coverage is.

And any paper that has wingnut hacks Deb Saunders and Jill Stewart writing columns is going to be fellating plenty of wood from the "Austrian oak" (as a certain Hawaiian-shirt-wearing police flack masquerading as a columnist in my hometown paper affectionately calls him).
