Subject: Funny Names for Newspapers



While I'm on the subject on Rush Limbaugh, Rush was angry at a liberal

reporterette (caller's word) from the Atlanta Urinal/Constipation

(Journal/Constitution).



Our local paper, the Union-Recorder, is often dubbed the Onion Disorder.

In West Chester, PA, I heard the Daily Local News called the Daily Lack of

News. My graduate student says that the Sandersville Progress is called

the Regression.



Surely, there are other funny monickers for papers around the country.

Please post them. I could use a laugh. The college is giving me a

paperweight today for 15 years of service.
