Can you imagine what it’s like to be the editor of a team of investigative reporters? Can you fathom what it would be like to decide the investigatory priorities of a team as talented and experienced as the sleuths at the NYT, WP, or 60 Minutes?
To rise to such a height of the editorial world, one must undoubtedly possess a nose for the story. As dozens and dozens of reports are released by governmental agencies, or come reeling off the wires, one must be able to sniff out the wheat from tons and tons of chaff.
What could be more obvious than the Downing Street Leaks? Even a 17-year old, blind and senile coonhound could see the DSM’s for what they are. They’re reporting gold.
Even the densest editor at the most backward yokel, circulation fifty, local paper in buttfuck South Dakota could catch a whiff of the ratings bonanza that DowningGate represents.
But the fuckers are silent. No one wants the story, no wants the money…because no one wants the hassle, and no one wants the responsibility.
And yeah, the Big-Foot Media are complicit, and they’re fucking dropping the ball on the DSM because they told all those lies too. OVER AND OVER.
This story should, and could at the drop of a hat, make OJ Simpson and Monica Lewinsky look like “cat-stuck-in-a-tree” level stories. It could put Watergate on page A2.
Oh, they’d sell papers and get platinum ratings….
So, what’s holding them back?
