Jewrnalism
Apparently we should learn more about semitism in Journalism school.
At least according to William Hern, a prominent Boulder doctor made famous by his attacks on Colorado's gubernatorial candidate Bill Ritter for his pro-life stance.
Yep, apparently there's some Jew named Golden who fled New York sometime in the last century and began a newspaper in one of the Carolinas (I don't remember which). He was a big crazy liberal beneath the mason-dixon line, and according to Hern, he was a Great Man.
Why do I know this? Because according to Hern, "You're a reporter. You should know about Golden." The implication being that if I don't know who this guy was, I'm not worth the paper my stories are printed on.
Very simple. Very easy.
I love absolutism.
Today it's turkey club, extra mayo. Gotta load up for that state of the union, baby. Tonights' one of those nights when the shrub gets to tell everyone he's a tree. Yippie ki yay, motherfucker.

I've been a broadcast journalist for nearly 33 years. Going to journalism school is the worst thing a budding journalist can do. You might as well just go to North Korea and sign up for their most advanced brainwashing courses.
Mr. Ranger brings up a good point. Perhaps "Jack" might also try "bombing around south Asia" freelancing. I hear there's a guy there that squirts stuff on strange ladies shoes.
Oh, I've BEEN to North Korea. You wouldn't BELIEVE how advanced that place is! they're lightyears ahead of us!
And thank you, Tonto, for your valuable insight. What would you suggest I do to break in to the biz, then? Whore myself out to Fox News? Hmmmm? It's fantastically convenient for you to smirk down at the lowly beginners and spout advice as though you're Walter Cronkite, but unfortunately, not all of us are as blessed with contacts and swiss bank accounts as you might have been.
