I think I've mentioned in previous blogs that I think the local paper is refuse. I do, however, check the website for the Times West-Virginian every few days just to see if any rednecks have wrecked their four-wheeler lately.
Today I was in for quite a treat as one of the articles from today had a roving reporter out and about asking the regular folk of Marion County what they think about about the bail out package.
First they interviewed two college coeds working at a bar/sandwich shop. Their opinions sounded like regurgitation from whatever their professor told them in the business class they have to take. Be sure to stay inside the lines when coloring ladies!
I'm not going to go down through the residents of this fine county that the writer interviewed, I had thought about it, but I don't have the time or inclination. The general consensus from them however is that life sucks, and if it doesn't suck now it will suck eventually. What a great outlook!
I need to get a job at this paper. In the opinion section naturally. How is it that a bartender with a smattering of college education is ahead of what is supposed to be one of the better newspapers in North Central West Virginia? I could cite that I have an opinion and an internet connection but I'm sure there are computers set up at the Times, although they are probably Macs.
And yes, J*Star, you were first on this.
