MDS...explain that 'First' mentality in journalism....
I understand that before the internet...whoever 'broke' the news of whatever event gave that journalist some clout? But...now you'll hear of some event, someone breaks the news...but within minutes...its all over the place.
Does breaking the news first still have any weight?
I'm clueless when it comes to this shtein and always wondered.

Ex MLB-er Willie Davis. (http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/Long-time-Los-Angeles-Dodgers-CF-Willie-Davis-found-dead-030910?gt1=39002)
QuoteIn 1996, Davis was arrested for allegedly threatening his parents with a samurai sword and ninja-style throwing stars, saying he would burn their house down if they didn't give him $5,000. Prosecutors eventually decided not to file charges.
His mother said it wasn't the first time he wanted money and she had given it to him in the past. Davis had become a Buddhist more than 30 years earlier, and in the six months before the attack, had started carrying the sword and a dagger that he wore in a holster, his mother said.

Cuellar was a good pitcher and a better man. Sad to see him go. The Orioles will never, ever be close to what that team was back then, though I don't know if they were any better than the Phillies are right now.
I remember Brooks saying that whenever Cuellar pitched he knew he'd be busy bacause of all the junk Cuellar threw. He had one of the most wicked screwballs ever.

Its weird, I was just reading an interview with her where she talked about how excited she was for Betty White and her sudden popularity with the younger generation. I commented on how great she looked, etc. Then like 2 weeks later, she's dead.

That sucks. He was always a little left of me, and I thought he let his opinions bleed through a little too much. But I've listened to NPR religiously since 1993, and he's been there the whole way. I'll miss him on the radio.
As a commentator yes, he showed his opinion.
His reporting however could hardly be called biased.
I specifically didn't use the word biased. My experience with Shorr was always as a special commentator, with editorials.
Did you hear the tape of him retelling the story about meeting Nixon years after Watergate? Classic.
I did. He was also the first westerner to interview Nikita Kruschev. He had a helluva run.

I don't know anything anymore.
he was on philly radio for 3 years, got kicked off air for playing a racist song that no one complained about but CBS was worried about another Imus blowup. KiddChris worked on Stern's show for years, and still does skits and stuff for him.
That's why I don't know him...I'm not Philly and I don't listen to Stern.
Thanks.
btw, the song was ridiculously racist, but the show pretty much was no holds barred make fun of everyone and everything.
I'm not above a good race joke.
That is not funny.
yeah, i didnt say it was in good taste at all. Speaking of race jokes, i found Gran Torino to be one of the funniest movies i've seen in a while. Over the top racism makes me laugh, the pictures behind the video are f'd up though

farg...what's up with 'stars' and drugs.
I saw Giraldo do stand up in maybe 2002-03 time frame.....it was right before he started getting popular and making appearances on shows like Tough Crowd. Anyway, his stand up was great and he really laid into this drunk bitch who was there for her bacholorette party because she and her skank friends were talking loud and being obnoxious. I suppose it's times like that that being an insult comic really comes in handy. Too bad phones weren't recording video yet because he made this bitch farging cry and I wish I could have recorded it.

Giraldo actually had a law degree from Harvard...guy was working at Skadden, Arps (one of the most prestigious law firms in NYC), only to quit practicing, develop an addiction to painkillers and subsequently kill himself. Safe to say he made the right choice.
if the alternatives are:
slave in a NYC law firm with laywer snake scumbags for money
and
tour the country performing comedy, OD
I go for the latter every time
i was serious that he made the right decision..fun and drugs are better than no fun and 20 hour work days.

QuoteThree-time world surfing champion Andy Irons of Kauai died today in a hotel room in Texas, family and friends confirmed.
His death is being investigated as a possible overdose of methodone, according to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office. An autopsy is scheduled for tomorrow but the exact cause of death may require a toxicology test, which could take 60 to 90 days to complete.
Irons had competed briefly this past weekend at a World Championship Tour contest in Puerto Rico where his family said today that he was suffering from dengue fever.

Turn out the lights.

Elizabeth Edwards (one day after announcing treatments would be stopped)
Jesus that was quick. You think John smothered her so he could get on with the bootysmacking he's been yearning for?
Assuming heaven exists, she gets a one-way ticket. Death of a child, philandering and ambulance-chasing husband, debilitating illness... That's the trifecta.
That bitch is going to cost me $140....
Ha, that's great.
Thanks for the money, Demon.
I heard John Lennon was shot today
What kind of monster would shoot a 30 year old corpse?
If he was up and out, able to be shot, he was obviously a zombie.

QuoteIn an interview with the Catholic Standard & Times earlier this year, Mahan talked about a slump he had in the minor leagues.
"The Augustinian priests kept telling me to have faith in the saints and to ask St. Jude for help when I would step up to bat," Mahan said. "After trying this, it was quickly obvious that St. Jude couldn't hit a curveball, either."
He should have tried voodoo.
Bob Feller is getting close......moved to hospice care.
People slotted for next year really need to stop dying early, dammit.
don't fret, perhaps under Obamacare you'll be able to buy some influence on the Death Panels
Oh, I wouldn't want to upset Miss Palin.......
Besides, the rules clearly state you can't kill anyone on your list.
A death panel's just a fancy name for a committee, and you know those don't make decisions.
Bernie Madoff's son off'ed himself and Richard Holbrooke, who is considered a key part of the US' diplomatic envoy to the Middle East, is in critical condition after having emergency heart surgery.
Holbrooke has an excellent chance to survive, given that he survived surgery.
Most people with that die before reaching the hospital.
So said my hot nurse wife.

Wow. I was just listening to something from Bongo Fury the other day, wondering what became of Don. And then I found out.
Steve Landesberg (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_obit_steve_landesberg)
I know him as the doctor from Forgetting Sarah Marshall....oops
I entered my payment for the 2011 ghoulpool early and won a copy of Zombies vs. Strippers.
Sometimes the stars just align, you know?
I opted not to enter early, just to not win a copy of that. For one, it wasn't very re-watchable. And two, my 8 year old would probably disagree with me.
