2. The Washington Post is read by people who think they run the country.
 
3. The New York Times is read by people who think they should run the

4. USA Today is read by people who think they ought to run the country

Southern California to do it.
 
6. The Boston Globe is read by people whose parents used to run the

country.
 
7. The New York Daily News is read by people who aren't  too sure

who's running the country and don't really care as long as they can get

8. The New York Post is read by people who don't care who is running

the country as long as they do something really scandalous, preferably

country, but need the baseball scores.
 
11. The San Francisco Chronicle is read by people who aren't sure

if there is a country or that anyone is running it; but if so, they oppose

all that they stand for. There are occasional exceptions if the leaders

are gay,  handicapped, minority, feminist, atheists, and those who also

happen to be illegal aliens from any other country or galaxy, provided

of course, that they are not Republicans.
 
12. The National Enquirer is read by people trapped in line at the

grocery store.
 
13. The Seattle Times is read by people who have recently caught

a fish and need something to wrap it in.

the newspaper are uninformed.  Those who do read a newspaper are misinformed.”
