Shittiest Nut Graf Of The Year
September 28th, 2006 by Justin
This nut graf sticks out like when Hal Jorden activates his Green Lantern power ring:
Less than a year ago, the Tribune Company told The Los Angeles Times to cut millions of dollars from the paper’s budget and get rid of hundreds of jobs. The top editor and the publisher complied.
But when Tribune came calling last month to seek a new round of cuts, Jeffrey M. Johnson, the publisher, and Dean Baquet, the editor, had had enough. They refused to make what they considered drastic cuts and said so publicly.
In that space of time, Mr. Johnson — who has worked for Tribune for more than 20 years — seemed to many Los Angeles Times employees to transform himself as dramatically as Clark Kent does when he removes his glasses, steps into a phone booth and turns into Superman.
Oh well, at this point at least the writer isn’t this guy.
