Sticks and stones, Pal, sticks and stones

A reader of a Philadelphia Daily News blog called "Attytood," posted the following bit of nastiness:

... Let's just imagine a newspaper as a product, one that was just invented today...

It's a product you have to go and get in the rain, snow or wind and pull out of the hedge, the leaves or a coin-eating box on a dirty street corner. It's heavy. It's big. You're not interested in 90% of its content. And when you're done with it, you -- literally -- have to wash your hands and figure out how to properly dispose of the thing.

Would you buy this new invention?

Didn't think so.

Ha! This guy's not so smart. He totally forgot to say that the new invention is incapable of informing you about any event that has taken place since you went to bed last night.
