What about it?  The sad sorry truth is that it isn't a free press.
Its very expensive - paper, ink, unions, stations, studios.  And
it purpose isn't to inform the public.  Its purpose is to sell
hamburgers and Saturns and devotion to the Money Party - the only
game in town.  For members only.  And their servants.  Where would
`the arts' be without `patrons of the arts'?  Nomination into the
party by a member is a definite possibility.

Go Eli's, beat those Cantabs!  Aren't you hungry?

Even this email is blasphemy.
