Wanted: Readers Equipped to Read the New York Timesnew
It was said a generation ago that The New York Times was written so anyone with a sixth-grade education would be able to understand it. Now the paper, which uses headlines like "Lame Duck Confit," is probably not within the grasp of sixth-graders, or, for that matter, much of its readership.

Wimblehack! The Search for America's Worst Campaign Journalistnew
Though we're tempted to blame the politicians for the embarrassing, uninspiring, degrading and even unentertaining exchange of sneering teenage accusations between the Bush and Kerry camps, it's time to dig deeper. It's time to blame the press corps.
