The Day the 'Washington Post' Fronted 14 McChrystal Stories at Once
Number of stories on the front page of the Washington Post about General McChrystal at 1:30 p.m.: FOURTEEN. (Still: Politico had FIFTEEN.)
Percentage of above-the-fold editorial web spaces used for those stories: approximately 65%.
4,000+ comments, this says. Doesn't that mean, by the Traffic Algorithm, that at least 35 people are reading their website?
Strasburg is not all star material.
But can he lead the troops in Afghanistan? I THINK SO.
"The reason against is subtle"? What's subtle about "the guy will have had less than 10 starts in his whole career"?
The guy has played what, THREE whole games now? Oh please, the reasons against should be that there are maybe 1500 other players with seniority who are having great seasons and deserve it more. Yeah, that's subtle all right. Now I'm all upset about the one article that ISN'T about General Billy Crystal.
The thing on street vendors not being able to sell anything besides dirty water hot dogs in DC is really good though. I would post it on my tumblr, but The Man won't let me.
Anyone familiar with the Post's website knows that several of those links probably go to the same article. So this is not an issue of "fourteen articles" but rather an issue of "confusing, aggravating website design."
REAL TALK.
Agh I prefer the Post with all my heart (BOLD CLAIM MR. DEEPOMEGA) but god their website is tits on a stick.
Oooh, we use the same text highlight color! Surely not a coincidence!
