Freedom's Just Another Word for...Gannett?

TV industry insiders say that Gannett, publisher of USA Today and about a billion other things, is set to announce the purchase of Freedom Communications for something north of $2 billion.

Freedom's flagship is The Orange County Register, long a bastion of free-market editorials. Freedom's TV stations will also be added to Gannett's broadcast arm, with little evident overlap.

If Gannett decides on a different editorial policy, this could mean a steep drop in the number of hard libertarian op-eds in the nation's most identifiably lib newspaper.

That would make me sad.

Another institution gets coopted, assimilated, and gets flushed down the toilet.

Is this what God meant when he created entropy?

LeFevre: Well yes, actually.

I beleive it was Buddha that stated, "All things are in a constant state of decay; strive endlessly."
