When people ask me where the idea for Pegasus News came from, I always answer simply, "I'm a news junkie and I thought my daily paper sucked."
Maybe that's why, try as I might, I just can't lay off the DMN. Until we're launched, they're all there is, and I don't have a good daily to read.
Saturdays are probably the DMN's weakest days, save for the Religion section. So I was particularly agitated this morning by the time I stumbled on the ad announcing the shuttering of the Wednesday Food section.
Then, I thought about the poor Belo-ite who had to write the ad, which is a painfully obvious attempt to put a positive spin on yet another dilution of the product. Made me think about yesterday's Monster ad.
The product of that cocktail of agitas and empathy-- stirred, not shaken-- is above.
