Quote of the DayComes from Alarming News, in a good piece about how the media can use bloggers to generate buzz. (Hint: It's pretty simple-- mention us.) But the quote of the day comes from "someone" at a CATO conference she attended last year: "Rupert Murdoch discovered a niche market when he started Fox News: half the country." Indeed and/or heh. Your choice. posted by Ace at 01:40 PM
CommentsI've seen that quote attributed the Charles Krauthammer. I dunno' if he's a CATO-nik or not, but it sounds like the sort of observation he would make. Posted by: SWLiP on December 20, 2004 01:46 PM
It wasn't Charles. I couldn't remember who said it but it wasn't anyone wildly famous. Posted by: Karol on December 20, 2004 02:20 PM
This exposes an interesting economic dynamic. Why does Fox News have more viewers than the other cable news networks combined? Simple. Because Fox News serves one half of the available audience (conservatives) by itself and all the others have to split the other half of the available audience(liberals).

I had a subscription to TIME for 14 years. When they continued their Leftist lurch and became so full of shit I couldn't read then anymore, I cancelled and they called me up and wrote 3-4 times begging me to renew, as they did to other consevatives I know. Perhaps they're feeling pinched again or maybe they've seen the Handwriting On The Wall, or more likely, they just acidentally told the truth. Posted by: 72VIRGINS on December 20, 2004 04:30 PM
Newsweek is hundreds of times worse, though. While Time sometimes publishes a Charles Krauthammer column or an article defending (or at least treating fairly) Bush or some other aspect of conservatism, I'm afraid I can't say the same for Newsweek. Just look at their feature article on the origin of Christmas from last week. Their columnists are even worse. Posted by: Kazmin on December 20, 2004 07:51 PM
I have to agree Kaz. I grew up reading Newsweek, and reading it now I just shake my head. The only thing separating Eleanor Clift from Michael Moore is a camera and about 200 lbs. Posted by: TallDave on December 20, 2004 09:22 PM

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this. He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again. You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.
People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
@KFILE 21m So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations. That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite thanks to weft-cut loop.
This is the dumbest AI bullslop I've seen in a while: the CIA can use "quantum magnetometry" to track an individual man's heartbeat from twelve miles away
I wouldn't click on it, it's not interesting, it's just stupid clickslop. I just want to share my annoyance with you.
Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.

This is super-obscure and I only barely remember it. Given that, I'll give you the hint that it's by the Red Rocker. And I guess you think you've got it made Oh, but then, you never were afraid Of anything that you've left behind Oh, but it's alright with me now 'Cause I'll get back up somehow And with a little luck, yes, I'm bound to win Now twenty people will tell me it's not obscure, it was huge in their hometown and played at their prom. That's how it usually goes. When I linked Donnie Iris's "Love is Like a Rock," everyone said they knew that one and that his other song (which I didn't know at all) Ah Leah! was huge in their area.

In more marketing for Project Hail Mary, scientists say they've found the biosigns indicating life growing on an alien planet. It's not proof, just signatures of chemicals that are produced by biological metabolism, and it could be nothing, but scientists think it's a strong sign that this planet is inhabited by something.
In a paper published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, a team of scientists announced the detection of dimethyl sulfide (along with a similar detection of dimethyl disulfide) in the atmosphere of an exoplanet called K2-18b. This is actually the second detection of dimethyl sulfide made on this planet, following a tentative detection in 2023. He means they tried to prove the signal was caused by things other than dimethyl sulfide but they could not. Recent Comments
