McClatchy Employee Applauds Shoe-Thrower

Nuance:

I applauded this act. I don't care that it is rude. Why are we concerned about etiquette when a country was destroyed? Did Bush ever apologize to the Iraqis for the hundreds of thousands of dead? Bush is an occupier, a clown pretending to be a hero, so enclosed in his own little self-certain world he probably was surprised an Iraqi could be that angry. I am not surprised. I am only surprised such a thing did not happen earlier.

Newsbusters gleefully notes that McClatchy's stock value has fallen 99% over the past three years.

Old But Sweet: This old piece from Newsbusters digests the NYT's disastrous business moves.

They've made a lot of bad moves. A lot.
