Johnny is playing the resurrection card, no doubt. And if there's one thematic literary construct every good Catholic in this city knows....it's resurrection.
But at the end of the day...is the King still the "dangerous peoples of the internet" dude? Or is he truly building a fertile workplace for journalism?
I have no fucking idea...I'm just thinking out loud. I'm really just bloviating.
Still...the possibilities excite me. Imagine a real investigative reporter unleashed in Baton Rouge....close your eyes...it's beautiful isn't it?
I'm trying not to be cynical and assume the worst. I totally understand Doug's perspective and he's right, right, and more right. I guess my expectations have been diminished so far that I'm just hoping against hope that this may be some fucked up, crazy, palingenesis of capitalistic journalism that will shift this state's foundation.
Ok...that was all a bunch of bullshit...I'll get serious in the next post and give you some hardcore facts and legal filings. Sorry if you read all that and feel as empty as I do. Ashe'.
"It's hard to deny that the New Orleans newspaper war is a compelling story. But it's important to note that so far it's basically a story about one paper being brought back from the dead.. much of it anyway."Jeffrey goes on to give us a well needed character profile of King Georges' venture into public life. I would add one more footnote in King Georges' history....not as a matter of self promotion but simply because I think it's important to shape the character whole.

I'm not trying to be cynical either. There's a lot to like about what's going on. I'm a new Advocate subscriber. I'm rooting for them. Those comments are just me trying to be realistic about things.
