    @ed c

    Joan Walsh isn't stupid. The headlines are no accident.

    The intent is to replace journalism with journalsim and stupification.

    I know it is hard to believe, for someone who isn't familiar with psychopathy, but it is intentional and best of all, it is profitable.

    You can get good money for lying, conning and manipulating the proles and dumbasses.

    You just don't appreciate what Joan has done for Salon.
