  1. Journalism has ALWAYS been the domain of the educated, Greg, and therefore NEVER a blue-collar endeavor. Even the lowliest reporter had to know how to write. Maybe low-end white collar, but white collar from start to finish. Yes, a good journalist is at home in a blue-collar bar, traditionally, but because traditionally, they're hard drinkers, but still with soft hands...

  2. Piers: Free speech isn't just a cultural tradition. It's explicitly part of our constitution, unlike the UK or any other European country, where they rely entirely on a culture of free speech to have any free speech. Your governments can arrest people for saying things they don't like. But ANOTHER feature of the American Way is to LET the newspaper print biased news. Let the free market decide if they buy it and buy the paper. I'm FINE with openly partisan rags. LET the NYT be a progressive echo-chamber cesspit. Just don't kid yourself that it's objective. It never was. This OPEN leftism is actually healthier for the country than their decades of pretense! This is how America is SUPPOSED to work! And let the readership of the NYT reflect that. Only people who want to follow the party line will remain subscribers. Meanwhile, everybody else can go somewhere else. The NYT was ALWAYS given far more credibility and influence than its editorial staff ever merited. Things just had to get bad enough for even a Piers Morgan to see it.
