strib, again.

For the whole week it gave the results of the "Minnesota Poll" which shows that we are divided and yes, I sensed an undercurrent of Republicanism there.

And today, perhaps they needed to fill space of a whole page (not enough Viking stories?) so they reprinted an editorial from a newspaper in Toledo going after the ones who "use the word racist" at every turn.

This story was also published in a Pittsburgh paper - a sister paper, I think - so they got a letter from 150 newsroom employees, decrying the publication of that editorial

Still, why would the strib dedicat a whole page for the original editorial?

I am pretty sure that they do not have many rabid conservatives among their readers. After all, it is difficult to shake the decades old image of a "liberal paper." So what are they trying to do? Lose the remaining liberals readers?
