As the Weekly points out today, the investors not only need an NHL team/owner to sign onto the deal or it's toast, they will have to obtain an NBA franchise before the first shovel of dirt is turned - and they "plan" on buying a hoops team for all of ...

Second that. And consider something the writer points out that hasn't gotten much play elsewhere - the mayor pulling ads from a newspaper that DOES NOT run the ads he is opposed to (the ads in question are on backpage.com) but happens to be a newspaper that has rightly attacked ...

Almost every one of those cities has a tunnel. The one in Paris has served the city well, except for Princess Di.

"As it turns out, the Law of Disappearing Traffic rules. That “law” states, simply, that when streets are blocked to cars, traffic will find another way."

Boeing made the flight plans and even the hotel reservations for the CIA. You really think someone ...

It says something, all bad, about journalism and Crosscut that someone thinks hiring a lightweight reporter to replace a lightweight blogger is going to save the P-I - and that, in any case, it's worthy of an overblown puff piece with a gauzy sex-me shot to boot. As the discussion ...

Hamer, a supposed media critic and fact-checker, is a tad disingenuous: The Times did a great job on the Lakewood shootings and they ought to be blowing their horn. But as a co-sponsor of this event with the Times, Hamer is invested and shows it by taking a cheap shot ...

I read the book too and noticed she mentioned another of your former Timesmen, Rick Anderson (a much better columnist than she)now at the Weekly, citing his reporting on Locke's more questionable (corrupt?) decisions as governor. In fact, she seems to rely a lot on others for her "reporting" in ...
