What a great point of view this is.
For practical purposes it is not possible to express opinions, or to cover stories, that offend a sizable group on the floor of the newsroom. If your editor is female, or the guy at the next desk black, or gay, you find it very hard to write anything that these groups won?t like. After all, you have to come to work every day. More diversity in the newsroom means less diversity in the news.
Thus, in his view, the newspapers are losing readership.
Fred on Everything has an interesting tone, and the items in his store are…different. A reviewer of one of his books calls him a modern Mark Twain. I may have to pick up Nekkid in Austin.
I like most of Fred’s stuff. He’s an old crony of Joe Galloways.
