WWMSMD?

What Would Main Stream Media Do? Well, here is what they did. Each item is followed by a MIF (Most Interesting Fact) from the article.

  • The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel is reporting, "Report: Packers offer Favre $20 million to stay home."
          MIF: "WTMJ-TV Channel 4 in Milwaukee, citing two sources, reported Wednesday that Packers president Mark Murphy at least floated the idea to Favre of paying him a package in the neighborhood of $20 million over 10 years to remain retired."

  • One of the best gossip columnists in the business, Norm Clarke of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, had two items: "Judge Glass clears courtroom quickly."
          MIF: "It looked like a jailbreak at the Clark County Courthouse on Tuesday after an earthquake rattled the 15th floor courtroom of O.J. Simpson Judge Jackie Glass."
          MIF (Part II): In the second item from Clarke: "Sighted in Vegas: Kevin Everett, the Buffalo Bills tight end who was paralyzed in the season opener in September, playing blackjack at New York-New York and walking through the Las Vegas Hilton on Tuesday."
