Paying to Play Jim Murray

FOXSports.com, which Jim Romenesko says "recently fired its entire writing staff," is holding an eBay auction for anyone who wants to cover the NASCAR New England 300, with bidding starting at $100. Journalistic scorn is already pouring in; Romenesko himself snipped "Yes, you too can pay to work for a Murdoch outfit."

Why don't they just hire Rush? Seriously.

I thought he was working for ESPN.

Actually, for a race fan having press credentials would be worth paying for. By the time Fox finds out you can't/won't write, its too late.

A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving.

It is only the most intelligent and the most stupid who are not susceptible to change.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
