THE NEWSROOM DYNASTS

I don't want to be one of those people who just throw up a bunch of links to other people's work, and command, "Read It," but Steve Gilliard has an awe-inspiring post this morning.

A quick sample, and you will know if you'd like the whole:
Ah,the Kingdom of CNN. Such great promise, such great failure. Once there was wise King Bernard. When he abdicated his throne, the Princes were each given their own fiefdoms. Some were managed well, some taken away. But there is no king and no direction, only princes looking out for their own interests. As a result, the leaderless kingdom staggers from pillar to post.

Just a few rules so that everybody can have fun: ad hominem attacks on the blogger are fair; ad hominem attacks on other commenters will be deleted. And I will absolutely not stand for anything that is, in my judgment, demeaning, insulting or hateful to any gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion. And though I won't insist on keeping politics out, let's think long and hard before we say anything particularly inflammatory.

Also, sorry about the whole "must be a registered user" thing, but I do deeply hate to get spam, and I refuse to take on the totalitarian mantle of moderating comments, and I am much too lazy to try to migrate over to a better comments system than the one that comes pre-loaded with Blogger.
