No blood in ants
I recommended doing things like this back in 2005. Did anybody listen? Well, Comcast, obviously, but did anybody around here? (By the way, if you're not a fan of the The700Level,com by now, you should be.)
Yes, this is part of a trend:
In a possible sign of shifting industry dynamics, the New York Times launched regional supplements to its San Francisco and Chicago editions, drawing on the work of well-financed donor-sponsored startups. Similarly, ESPN launched regional sites in Chicago, Boston, Dallas and Los Angeles, challenging papers there for dominance in sports reporting. The Wall Street Journal is rolling out regional supplements as well and increasing its local coverage of New York City.
But if this is, as it appears, a case of well-off national media lions (and some new media challengers) feasting on sickly antelopes, watch for many metros to fight back in 2010. Already, for example, the Seattle Times has responded to the rich collection of neighborhood Web sites in that city by partnering with and aggregating 19 of them.
No reason why that couldn't happen here. Is there?
Yes, this is an open thread, so please ignore what I just wrote and scream "socialism!" and "it was all Bush's fault!" at each other for the rest of the day.

Even the Mass Treasurer trashed the state's health care model. "BOSTON – The Massachusetts treasurer said Tuesday that Congress will “threaten to wipe out the American economy within four years” if it adopts a health-care overhaul modeled after the Bay State’s." http://www.masslive.com/news/index.ssf/2010/03/mass-type_health_care_could_wi.html— RG- Of course people are going to veer off on other topics today. Willy gave us nothing of relevance to discuss-it must be another slow news day at the inky.— camtheman
- Uh oh, the Dems are having trouble getting the CBO score they want on the bill. Looks like all the bribes and kickbacks are starting to add up. http://spectator.org/blog/2010/03/16/dems-still-dont-have-the-cbo-s— RG

Socialism! It's all Bush's fault!- He is not mocking his readership, just the idiots amongst us
- TPS: "but it'll finally allow the country to get its financial house in order. {{{--- Thanks goodness. Those last 200 plus odd years have just been a total mess" Except before JFK, we didn't borrow long term year after year. Over the last 50 years, inflation has been the highest of any point in those 230 years. Growth rate is below average over those 50 years. Foriegn ownership is three times what is was before 1960 and is now the nighest ever.— Fisher
