Today we reminded ourselves of the great public service the newsrags did by self-destructing. At their full strength of thirty years ago the Big 3 would all have run cover pictures of their hero-thug, two asking, "DID Sarah Pull the Trigger?" (Useless News would have said it differently being nominally "conservative".) Today Useless is gone, destroyed by the zillionaire's incompetence that refuses to teach SID a lesson; and for all the brave talk SIDSWEEK has practically vanished in print, leaving the TWXSTERS' relic, a ragged sheaf of sappy essays. We further remembered the great public service our newspapers did by self-destructing when our local StinkyInky ran a big front-page hed proclaiming, "GIFFORDS FULLY RECOVERED!!!!!" Yes it is true the hacks' desire to misinform is stronger than ever, as we've seen in the mindless conformity of this week; and yes, more people may be misinformed than ever, through the miracles of cable "news" and the Web; but the printed TRUTH is no more God's word, nor do the people, angered and chastened by the hacks' innumerable malevolent mistakes, believe it as a commandment.
