More evidence that the chipper airheads in the Star’s FYI department don’t read their own paper, or perhaps any newspaper: Monica Watrous’ column today expressing surprise that there’s a branch of the Federal Reserve Bank in Kansas City (admitting that she didn’t even know what the Fed was). But a quick database search indicates that the phrase “Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City” showed up 85 times in the Star over the previous year; the name of Fed President Tom Hoenig was mentioned 24 times just in the past year. (He’s been president of the local Fed for 17 years.) And just so you know, Monica, the Fed’s been in downtown Kansas City since 19-frickin’-14. That’s what we love about FYI. They’re so informed.

Go Blow Yourself and Pitch is a Bitch, I hope you are best of friends rather than have that much animosity with each other.
I've read some of Monica "I'm As Dumb As A Stump" Watrous' stuff and really enjoyed her vivid expressions and sense of humor (although, her tongue is so far implanted in her cheek that most readers miss it).
I am not a big fan of the Star and definitely not a fan of the Pitch - just ran across this rambling while searching for a story and got sucked into reading the banter.
If this is truly hostility you all have with each other, you should all visit a therapist � or take up a hobby.
You're a f-ing liar, "Ellen" (or whatever fake name you people at Pitch are using). Monica hasn't been at The Brick for months. She was at a funeral last week because her grandma died. Don't you feel like an asshole...
Hey, "Pitch is a Bitch," YOU'RE the douchebag because you're humorless, butt-ugly and pass gas in public. Don't try to deny it, because I sat next to you at The Brick a couple of weeks ago and was nearly suffocated by the stench. Oh, and you were with Monica "I'm As Dumb As A Stump" Watrous too, who also let out a few post-chili dog farts that nearly had the place shut down as a public health hazard.
Thanks for letting me share this.

Cathy, Don't be a such a douche bag just because you don't recognize sarcasm.
Hey, Chet, "Rebel Hell" wasn't an exaggeration--it was outright fiction! And it takes a lot of intellect and artistry to write that kind of satire!
Walter, I was Nexis-ing, not Googling. And sorry, but the name's not Cathy.
Sounds like C.J. has a new crush over at The Star. Jenee will be heartbroken.
Monica Watrous has the same exact number of IQ points as a crumpled-up McDonald's bag with a rotting dog turd in it.
They are a bit slow over at the Star. And most of them are working of of reputations. Some of the reputations aren't so good any more. They are becoming less relevant every day.
Wow. What a courageous act of journalism, Cathy. And it's good to see you've learned how Google works. Kudos!
