Nice Spin

Newspaper

The morning after The Thrilla on Parliament Hilla, I was quite interested to read the headlines of our four daily newspapers.  Here they are:

  • "The Liberals Survive" - The Globe and Mail
  • "Happy Now?" - Toronto Sun
  • "Election Averted" - Toronto Star
  • "Grits Buy Time" - National Post

The National Post is unashamedly conservative, overtly boastful of their right-wing bias.  The paper has never received a dime of my money and it never will. I continually read about how it has never made a profit and I look forward to the day I learn the Aspers have pulled the plug.

The morning after Belinda's epithany, I noted the sexist headline smeared on the front page of the National Post.  It read "Blonde Bombshell" and it, along with the unfounded insinuation of "Grits Buy Time", are embarrassing examples of what happens with a paper merely exists to promote conservative and pro-American values with no interest in preserving the integrity of the story they're covering.

It's racist, it's sexist, it's homophobic, it's your National Post.
