Conspiracy theorist Author Jack Cashill is demanding a public apology from The Kansas City Star's Derek Donovan, who called Cashill a liar. I have my own demand, Jack. Apologize to Barack Obama and William Ayers for your crackpot Ayers-wrote-Obama's-book yarn. While you're apologizing, throw in one for the Crap Archivist for writing 2006: The Chautauqua Rising.
Must be a day of call outs. McClatchy Watch wants Kansas City Star publisher Mark Zieman to end the paper's "sweetheart deal" with "nationally syndicated columnist" and wife of Zieman, Rhonda Chriss Lokeman. Zieman response: a) he'll get right on that, or b) a fuck off disguised in a curt e-mail. What's up with everyone in this city taking their wife to work?

doesn't think dead pools are a bad idea if they keep Katie Horner from flipping out about the weather. "If we as bloggers start
putting up our Death Pool, maybe the freaking
media will stop focusing on Yule logs and start doing SERIOUS in depth
reporting on what the hell is going on," JoCoSob writes. "With the snow season approaching you can be guaranteed less coverage of crime in the metro. Instead they [would] rather scare the crap out of people
with false snow predictions." Katie Horner's heart is breaking.
The KCMO City Council is back to business, with the exception of Ed Ford, writes Dan from Gone Mild. Finally, the Funk-Squitiro embarrassment media tour ends.
Sweet Jesus, I agree with the Source on the "predatory" towing ordinance that the City Council is about to pass in response to the crying bunch of people who parked illegally and got their cars towed. "These are people who ignored signs in private lots and
parked their
cars where they should not have," the Source writes. "In most cases
they took a risk to get
a closer parking spot, and they lost." I gotta lie down. &mdash Justin Kendall

Yes, Cashill [aka: Cashog] plays fast and loose with the truth, a la Lee Atwater.
Yes, the Z man runs Ernest Hemingway's news letter like his own little feidom. So many editing rewrites and personnel decisions seem to be based upon personality politics.
More over, after the torents of bile from snickering, snarkie readers on his personal column last week, the Falling Star has greatly tightened their entry into response blogs. What are those folks afraid of, the public?
The Falling Star is playing it both ways, it recants Da Funk's endorsement while still acting as his shill. It's 'woe is our financial mess' with out attacking the completely worthless expensive art fence for Ruskin High. [Duh!]
My vote for 2008 Corporate insanity is.....
