I think we're all doing more of that. I also like to look at the UK
newspapers just to see what their take on us is (not good). Hell, I've
seen the claim you can get more hard news off Al Jazerra than the US kept
press.
Well, I still remember sitting in Toronto and reading their local
newspaper ...
And realizing that it took longer than 5 minutes to read the Op-Ed page.
That was a pretty stunning realization of how far our press had fallen.
There were complex ideas on the page. There were words above a 5th
grade level. Brain cells actually had to activate to process the articles.
I used to get that same feel when reading the New York Times. That
hasn't happened in probably about 15 years.
