Re: capitals

The NYC/LA wars continue:

Actually part of the above is wrong too.  Washington DC, by its very nature,
is the media (or media circus) capitol of the world - not NYC.  If the
president farts it's on CNN in minutes.  If the mayor of NYC farts - no one
outside of Manhattan gives a hoot - and they probably don't in Manhattan
either.  As one who was a journalism major in college and idolized Woodward
and Bernstein, I am appalled at the terrible state of American journalism
today.  It's not too liberal or conservative - it's VERY LAZY!!!!   Just read
some wire reports and write - don't go out and dig for the story or the truth
- - that's too hard.  Want more proof?  Just watch one of those Sunday news
programs where the alleged journalists ask the politicians some of the most
inane questions I have ever heard.  Today's journalists are the only class of
people that can make today's politicians look like geniuses.  Oh well.
