I’m stepping out of the shadows of my soon to be full-time blog sabbatical (post Election Day) to give a H/T to Jerry at From on High.
Jerry demonstrates the total cluelessness of The Roanoke Times (get yer own link) editorial staff on the whole Roscoegate issue. Jerry quotes the times as saying:
If a candidate or a blog alliance isn’t wise enough to register its own name and some obvious iterations, it deserves all the resulting satire.
Excuse me? You boys need to go back to journalism school and learn the definitions of satire and libel, ’cause obviously you skipped that day.
I might note, however, that as of this writing, the domain names www.roanokecrimes.com and www.roanokeslimes.com are available.
For a while at least.
But hey, what’s a little satire amongst friends?
