Ginger Gibson Moving On
We knew that after the national media got a look at Ginger Gibson, she wouldn’t be long for this one-horse town. We got a tip that she has accepted a position with the Newark (pronounced new-irk) Star-Ledger in New Jersey. This is a shame for Delaware, as she was one of the good reporters over [...]

That Hypocrisy Show
wRong Williams is funny, not in the intentional stand-up comedian way, funny in a Gerry Ford-bumping-his-head-kind-of-way. For years Williams has lamented over the fact that bloggers have a little more leeway than newspapers in reporting rumors and such. He always fails to mention that many times, the blogging of rumors turn out to be truth.
So [...]

Is The News Journal In The Tank For Castle?
Ron Williams gives a little throwaway item at the end of his column today:
Taking care to take credit
Did I miss something? I thought the governor’s office, not the county executive, was working to restart Valero since it was shut down.
“The deal is a demonstration of what strong Democratic leadership can do for Delaware and is [...]
Gannett Lays Off Workers and Profits Soar? Great Success!

Facepalm of the Day
In today’s Delaware Dialog, there is a post by Ginger Gibson that I have two issues with.
David Hoffman, new to the Chris Coon’s Senate campaign, had his laptop stolen . . . from his car on Concord Pike. Leaving your laptop in your car?! In my humble opinion this makes Hoffman too dumb to work [...]

Ron Williams States His Problem With Bloggers And Then Proceeds To Use Their Work
On today’s opinion page of the News Journal Ron Williams makes several points.
1. He really doesn’t like bloggers, especially anonymous bloggers
2. Bloggers that use to be journalists are sorta okay, but, in general, he doesn’t like bloggers.
3. Having got that off his chest he then proceeds to write an article about a blog post.
Priceless.
The News Journal Admits Delaware Liberal Is Correct
The News Journal has obviously been poking around DL again. They wrote an article about DD’s post on Michelle Rollins “Millionaire Michelle Rollins Takes Bonus From Wilmington Trust TARP Funds.” The News Journal represents this as a partisan attack but also admits that the post is accurate.
The numbers being tossed around at DelawareLiberal [...]
Where Are My Smelling Salts?
Where did I put my fainting couch? I can’t find any pearls to clutch! The News Journal weighs in on the Biden hot mic moment:
When you call a press conference, watch what you say in front of the microphones.
Thanks to modern technology, the globe can now hear your whisper.

All Mr. Biden has to do is [...]
Who Speaks For Me On This Issue?
Exhibit one on why we need to have more representation for women in government: abortion restrictions in the health care reform bill. A group of “pro-life” (which means life begins at conception and ends at birth) Democrats were willing to deny 32 million already existing people health insurance because the bill fails to outlaw [...]

Why Did The News Journal Turn Down This Ad?
The SEIU has been working at organizing the janitors at Wilmington Trust HQ. The janitors are hired and managed by Optima Cleaning Systems — but the SEIU filed unfair labor relations charges against this Optima this past spring with the NLRB. The NLRB and Optima settled at least part of the charges made, which resulted in some monetary restitution by Optima to 7 individuals and required Optima to post where employees could see it a formal notice listing the ways that Optima was not to interfere with organizing activities.

The News Journal Op-Ed Page: A Wingnut Bastion?
What’s in the water over at the News Journal Editorial Board?
Today they are running an op-ed, “An Unconstitutional Nobel”, tha looks at whether or not President Obama can constitutionally accept the Nobel Prize. Oh yeah, the article is written by Ronald Rotunda, a senior fellow of the Cato Institute, and Peter Pham, a senior fellow [...]
Looks Who’s Famous :-P
Today’s News Journal had an article on local reaction to the Nobel Peace Prize award:
Timothy Pancoast, blogging on Delawarepolitics.net, which bills itself as “Delaware’s Center-Right Voice,” wrote: “Our great leader President Obama has won a Nobel Peace Prize. He has paid far less for that than most people pay to win at the Dover Downs [...]
