NEUHARTHISM OF THE MONTH: Okay OMERTA, it's fine with me if you want to lead a Claudia "RAH! RAH!" Eller cheerleading routine for something like this, but keep in mind OMERTA, TRIB stock is near a 52-week LOW, and one BIG reason for that IS NOT THE DO-NOT-CALL LAWS.

Indeed the more I think of this the more offensive it gets, because with such dog turds your biz wears its corporate self-interest on its sleeve. True, TRIB isn't in MSOs, but it is in cable. Why couldn't WGN piggyback such masterworks on its regular signal? The OOOHs and AAAhs your biz inflicts us with about porn are just another manifestation of SYNERGY, another way of keeping your CORPORATE OPTIONS open. It is obvious from this Machiavellian shtick that you and the other megatyrants in this biz view your readers and surfers as IDIOTS. But YOU must be IDIOTS TOO to risk the ire of state legislators -- and CONGRESS. One more time -- the reason news stocks are in the tank IS NOT THE DO-NOT-CALL LAWS.

You persist with this sort of bilgewater OMERTA and we can remove YOUR property from our BOOKMARKS, just as I have done with THE BLOGGERS OF THE MILLENNIUM.
