Thanks Kelly, very good article. I can’t add anything of value to the many good points, so I’ll just make a couple extraneous personal observations.

1) I assume your muscle bike had the same extra high “easy rider” handlebars that mine did.

2) I’ve always found it irritating that many of those who would have received refuge from armageddon at Greenbrier would probably have been the same ones who played a big part in causing armageddon. Note: I do NOT include the Secretary of the Senate in this comment 😉.

Yes, the “easy rider” handlebars were an essential element for my paper bag. And, no, the Secretary, as Bob Woodward described it unfairly, is a “factotum” and not responsible in any way for the ills of society.

From one paperboy to another, a truly excellent piece.

Skip to this comment and save yourself the bull. This sums up the view "innovative journalists like Bari Weiss, the founder of the wildly successful The Free Press and now head of CBS News". Bari Weiss who was just an editorial hack and not a journalist, the Free Press, a not so successful rag, now running CBS News in order to facilitate a merger overseen by Trumps hacks. Okay, got it!

Agree, let the marketplace prevail.

The MSM has lost the narrative and can't get it back, and they have no idea how to respond.

I do miss the Sunday Boston Globe of my youth.
