One of my favorite metaphors because it is so powerfully evocative. In my minds eye I am picturing the entire editorial, opinion and “news reporting” staff of The Slimes being blown to smithereens by their own immensely hypocritical machinations. Couldn’t happen to a more loathsome bunch of ProgBot hacks.

“The IRS tacked on a 20 percent penalty for ‘negligence or disregard of rules or regulations.’”

So when does the Infernal Revenue Service get assessed a 20% penalty for negligence and disregard of the U.S. Constitution?

“And all this comes just months after the company emerged from a long bankruptcy ordeal.”

It seems only fitting that an industry that for so long has been morally and intellectually bankrupt should also be financially destitute. I hope every major metropolitan daily newsrag in the country goes bankrupt and it’s reporters and editors have to find honest and productive work doing something other than shilling for The Ruling Elite and it’s Corporatist/Crony Capitalist/Fascist agenda.

I suppose we could trust these journalistic frauds to do something mundane like flip burgers or sell fake Birkenstocks at the swap meet. On the other hand, maybe the pencil necked, feminized, clueless, regressive weenies might not even be able to handle that.

The definition of Schadenfreude – Taking delight in the financial ruin of ones enemies.
