    Heh. See also.

  2. EBL says:

    Amazing, isn’t it.

  3. EBL says:

    Acutally it is not amazing. It is quite predictable and typical. Which is incredibly pathetic.

  4. BT says:

    And to think at one time journalism was an honorable profession.

  5. leigh says:

    When was that, BT? They like to lionize their own, but I’m having a hard time thinking of any hard-hitting journos.

  6. Ernst Schreiber says:

    I can think of any number of hard-hitting journos muck-rakers.

    Just not any honorable ones.

    BT, Kipling knew better:

    She patronized extensively a man, Ulysses Gunne,
    Whose mode of earning money was a low and shameful one.
    He wrote for certain papers, which, as everybody knows,
    Is worse than serving in a shop or scaring off the crows.

  8. BT says:

    So Breitbart isn’t here.

  9. leigh says:

    Breitbart is everywhere. He’s a force.

  10. BT says:

    Hm. I just find it strange that there aren’t writers out there who haven’t sullied their reputation.

    What about the mid-east bloggers like Totten and Yon.

    Some of the writers at City Journal. Have they jumped the shark?

    Isn’t there a reporter who posts here?

  11. sdferr says:

    In large volume publications the reporter or whoever has to get the piece past the editors who control what goes in and what stays out. See Insty’s link to the never published Life magazine photo series on the Hell’s Angels yesterday.

  12. leigh says:

    Roddy Boyd posts here, former NY Post.

  13. BT says:

    I have vague memories of an Angels funeral procession driving down Foothill Blvd in Hayward, CA in the early 60’s 63-64 maybe.

    Rolling thunder. Seemed to go on forever. Must have been thousands. But everything is bigger than life when you are a kid.
