Readers of
The State are treated daily to a generous helping of
stolen imported Opinion columns from
The New York Times. (By contrast, readers of
The Post and Courier and
The Greenville News get plentiful portions of factually accurate, locally relevant news.) This says a lot about
The State. They buy that silly line about "
all the news that's fit to print" and their elitist, left-wing world view is a pale imitation of what "
The Gray Lady" does up in New York City. All that bowing and scraping is getting embarassing.
Anyway, today's Opinion Page includes a
tender little epistle from NYTimes doyenne
Maureen Dowd that compares replacing
Nightline's Ted Koppel with the election of a new pope.
Further commentary is unnecessary.
Honest question: How stupid/offensive does something have to be before
The State won't print it?
