  1. We start our Sunday with the latest brain-freeze at the C-N.

    Sports section: Room for a full page with 3 canned columns -- Mike Lopresti on football players lost at sea, Paul Franklin about baseball, Keith Sargeant kissing the ass of the new Rutgers athletic director. A big sports story broke in late afternoon (Terrell Owens signing with Buffalo) and got buried in agate.

    Kissing the AD's ass is always great, especially when your paper suppresses the story about Rutgers' money-losing bowl trip.

  3. Actually, it has not been mentioned for awhile because it has been self-evident, but NJ PAPERS SUCK, and NJ MANAGEMENT SUCKS MORE!

  4. What happened to the APP Statehouse Bureau folks who were let go? One ended up shilling for the Republicans, what about the other 3?

  5. Evidently Bob Ingle is still around because his column appeared today, Sunday, in at leasst one of the NJ papers.

  6. Chucky: It's not the Courier-News' job to feature national news. The C-N is a local newspaper, therefore, local gets gets prime placement. You want national, read the NYT or ESPN.

    What about that can't you understand?

  8. The hard-hitting journalists still haven't found a way to blow the lid off that building scandal.

    "Nope, I guess not."
