"Wouldn't it be fabulous if journalism were more like comic books? Current news stories would be like daily updates in the fascinatingly dramatic story of Muwafaq Al Rubaii and Chalabi and Al Hakim. Then they'd be like ongoing stories with interesting characters, and people would argue as passionately about actual war and politics as they do about what kind of underpants Batgirl wore in issue #139's special misprint or whatever." -- Liz Henry, on Other Blog, 2007-01-17

"No, no, they ret-conned it. Didn't you read the State of the Union mini-series?"

But the average quality of journalism these days is already like comic book story lines!
