Accusations III

Journal manufacturers, for not making journals that I'd want to write in: How hard is it to come up with an attractively-covered, lined, spiral-bound hardcover journal? Until you get your act together, I'm making my own.

Newspaper companies, for cutting staff and then continuing to expect the paper to go out, with no attention to excellence in stories, editing, production or employees: You corporate managers deserve what you're going to get. Move out from on top of everyone else so they don't get crushed when your clay feet give out -- preferably to an old-fashioned leper colony, and continually shouting "unclean! unclean!" so the rest of us can keep a good distance from whatever infection has addled your brains.

The Connecticut state FOI commission: For making it safe for city and town governments to pretend that "freedom of information" means "freedom to keep information from you, city and town residents."
