In Which Independent Sources Sinks to the Level of the National Enquirer
We try soooo hard to stay focused on California politics, the media, and, this month, the Tour de France. But sometimes the dark side tempts us. Once it was our post about Cambodian Midget Fighting Leagues. Then, we couldn’t help writing about the judge who used a penis pump while court was in session. But we really try to leave the good stuff for Defamer. But today the dark side tempts us … there’s this item in Editor and Publisher … it involves a horse … a man … strange desires … shocking videotapes … a man’s dying words: ouch! … a tragic death … a question of journalistic practice …
We won’t do it. You won’t read When a Man Dies in a Sex Act with a Horse — What’s a Reporter to Do? in Independent Sources. Never.
