Honest News
Heard on CNN this morning: "Coming up next, all the news you need to know; also, the latest on Mariah Carey." OK, I am sure it is not all the news I need to know, though perhaps it is arguable that I do need to know some or most of it, for some values of "need." But I thank them for not pretending I need to know a damn thing about Mariah Carey.
Perhaps the NYT motto could be "All the news that's fit to print, plus some extra crap to fill space."

"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt."
