The real issue isn't just the New York Times. It's the media. Blogs are now part of the media circuit that regulates that cycle, and they can be used to critique the media. And the government. And that's exactly what this project will now be: a forum to critique the media and the government.
I don’t hate the New York Times-- I hate the fact that it's obscene. Obscene. The word is tied to Greek tragedy, and wiki tells me it "literally means 'offstage' [--] because violent acts in Greek theater were committed off stage." It's latin derivation might be derived from ob caenum, literally "from filth." A few pets died in this country, so right now you're hearing all those horror stories about what's happening to your food in China. Well, we need to follow a few more bodies off stage, because there's lots of filth that needs to be dragged into the light, things you probably look at everyday.
Well, I'm going to see what I can find in plain sight, in flagrante delicto. . .
