The Herald Recommends.....


Remember when a newspaper endorsement, from a powerful metropolitan paper led by someone like Lou Grant, really meant something and could easily swing a local election?

Me neither.

Indeed, if anyone listened to This American Life this weekend, with "local news" being generated for major American papers under fake American bylines by Filipinos working for pennies a day, it's increasingly hard to take advice from these struggling vestiges of a once glorious past.

Still, they persist and we sometimes pay attention:
For Miami-Dade County Court Group 28 The Miami-Herald recommends TANYA BRINKLEY.
Hey, we agree!
For Miami-Dade County Court Group 33 The Miami-Herald recommends TERETHA LUNDY THOMAS
Hey, we also agree!

Good job anonymous Filipino editorial writer -- you've certainly earned your twenty cents.

(Sorry about all that racism and early 20th Century waterboarding).
