Here's Your Rupert Murdoch Wall Street Journal

File this under 'Too Freaking Bizarre to be Actually True'. Last week, a Wall Street Journal writer, Amy Chozik, wrote a piece about whether Barack was too skinny to be president. Seriously. Yes, the Rupert Murdoch era has officially begun. If it wasn't bad enough that WSJ assigned such a fluff piece, it turns out Ms. Chozik did her research by posting to Yahoo! Message Boards the query, you guessed it, "Is Barack Too Skinny to Be President?"

How in God's name did a journalist this awful get a job? Newspaper business, watching your disintegration is actually starting to become a pleasant case of schadenfreude.

Darth Novak Cited for Hitting Pedestrian



Robert Novak, perennial runner-up to Dick Cheney in the America's Most Evil Man contest, clipped a pedestrian on his way to work yesterday in his black Corvette according to Politico. Novak told the assembled press that he did not see the 66-year old pedestrian (I know, this story is great!), but was glad 'he's not dead'. A bicyclist spotted the incident and chased Novak and his end-life crisis mobile down K Street. He parked his bike in front of Novak and made a citizen's arrest, waiting for the police to arrive.

Oh, and it gets better. It turns the guy he hit was 86 and homeless. Priceless! Can you get a better example of Novak's contempt for America than this?
