Worst Lede Of The Week: 12.27.06
December 27th, 2006 by Justin
Do they know it’s Christmas? Here is a awful lede…
Now that the presents are open and the Christmas tree has become little more than a fire hazard, it’s time to recycle.
I love how this is written as if it’s the natural order of life. Like, now that the turkey has been eaten and the cranberry sauce wiped from the children’s chins, it’s time to balance your checkbook. Or, now that the eggs have been located and the chocolate bunnies have become little more than cocoa memories, it’s time to pick a side in the gay marriage debate.
Congratulations Dania Akkad of the Monterey Herald, you wrote the worst lede of the week. Thanks to the reader who sent this in, you will receive a Media Bitchfest magnet.
