Top Five Positive Things To Come Out Of Rathergate
Rathergate is not an end to traditional journalism as we know it. Sure bloggers rule and all that, but a lot of postive things have emerged from this event in our developing techno-history:
1. The clothing industry can capture a new market as kids, in an effort to be cool, flood stores for the latest line of “pajama journalist” sleepwear.
2. Parents can now use Rathergate as a teaching experience to explain to their kids what a typewriter was and how things were so hard back then, using phrases such as “your word and a handshake were all that was required”, “uphill both ways in the snow” and “only cost a nickel.”
3. People with lisps can now confidently use the “th” sound when talking politics.
4. Geraldo can stop risking his life in an effort to pass on his title as “least credible journalist.”
5. It looks good for Microsoft Word to be the featured sponsor at the upcoming National Forgers Convention.

Michael,
Thanks for sharing. I'm glad I got up-graded to garbage. It's taken the longest time to have my work be promoted from scum. :-)
