The Las Vegas Sun. It is wholly owned by the Las Vegas Review Journal, which is relatively conservative. Problem being The Sun can pretty much do what they want. When it went under some years past, it was bought by the RJ with the stipulation that The Sun would have a daily section of their own, including, sadly, an op-ed section. So The Sun still gets to spew their bile daily for the libs in the area that like that crap.

I find myself almost always out of the loop here in the greater LA area. We have a newspaper, but no TV coverage since LA dominates and I don’t have time to read the newspaper. I pick up the occasional one at work, but every time I’ve taken the paper I usually run over it as I back up out of the driveway — and ours is a pretty decent paper overall.

The one I read is the Washington Times and the WSJ. The rest can go to hell. We would not be in the utter dismal predicament we are in if these bastards did their jobs. But instead they all took turns giving the left reach arounds. Now they are taking it in the shorts and they still don’t get it.

I wouldn’t wipe my ass with the newsprint we get in Memphis…

But you know, I don’t know anyone under sixty who still gets their news from a newspaper.

As far as weekly rags, we’ve got the Phoenix New Times out here. Just to give you some idea of where their political stance lies, they also run the L.A. Weekly and S.F. Weekly, and they bought the Village Voice a few years ago. Most of their cover art in recent months has depicted the Border Patrol and the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office as weapon-wielding thugs (and one actually crossed the forbidden line into implying that our sheriff is a Nazi).

They seem intent on using the same type coffin nails to doom themselves as did “Air America!”

I for one am delighted to see fish wrappers like the LA Slime,the Atlanta Urinal-Constipation,the Boston Glob,and the Seattle Slime-Unitelligentcer fall under the bus….hopefully our local North Korean rag,the Memphis Commercial Appeal,will quickly follow.
