Hey, Wall St. Journal?

textualdevianceJournalizm: Yer doin' it wrong.
I suppose it's too much to hope that they fire her ridiculous ass, considering that it was probably one of their Friedmanite freak editors who assigned the story in the first place.
The WSJ hasn't had anything resembling journalistic standards in... oh... about forever. And it got even worse when NewsCorp (yes, the one famous for owning Fox "GOP Pravda" News) took over. But it's still kind of surprising that they'd be this clumsy about their overt partisanship. I mean, really... can't you at least make some attempt at actual reporting before you start in with the whole "Democrats are EVIL and want to STEAL YOUR MONEY!!11" spin?
Sigh... it all makes the zombie Edward R. Murrow cry.
