New York Post Is A Disgrace

The daily paper is known for its flashy front pages, usually the font is 4 inches high and says something to get your attention, trying to separate itself from all of the other papers offered here in Manhattan. They also have a reputation for having a conservative bent (being owned by Rupert Murdoch certainly proves that) and going over the top for its reporting of certain local stories.

Saturday's paper was a perfect example of that bent and their penchant for going completely out of bounds. This time the editors showed their heartlessness by posting a picture of a crash test dummy with ICU patient Governor Jon Corzine. The big headline for the Governor was "BUCKLE HEAD." The NY Post has no shame and careless disregard for Corzine and his family. It is one thing to disagree with him on political issues, but to exhibit that type of callousness should be relegated to right wing hate sites.
