The World according to DocBrain

Bye-Bye Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Wah-Hoo!!!

Finally, the Tribune-Review delivers to my neighborhood! I am not a big fan of newspapers, but need one for the dog (see prior posts). A review by WifeBrain showed that the coupon count in the T-R was equal to the PPG, so no problemo.

The PPG has a liberal bias. So, this paper, in theory, should strongly appeal to about 1/3 of the population, repel 1/3 and be neutral to 1/3.

Lately, even the hard core liberals are having trouble with this paper. Cyril Wecht, MD recently wrote a letter condemning the paper for its blasting of him in a biased way. Cyril has discovered the anti-Jewish leanings of the paper, as he comments on in his letter.

Two days ago, a colleague described DocBrain as a Liberal. DocBrain didn't think of himself in that way, but perhaps he is.

DocBrain was told by the front page editor two years ago that the PPG had no option but to run the pictures given to them by the national news, but this year ran a local picture for the Jewish New Year.

I have no trust in the PPG, find them uncredible, and their news emotionally biased in favor of rascals and criminals. Won't miss ya!
