Your humble and obedient servant came across a new site chock full of interesting local information today, The Daily Mole. I've just started to dig into the site, but a couple of interesting posts got my attention for starters. The first is the article with the same title as this post: Media: Strib editors get caught adding a conservative spin to wire story. It just figures, doesn't it? One or two of the remaining editorial page writers and columnist Nick Coleman remain obviously liberal, but the rest of the news and opinion is slanted to favor the right, usually in subtle ways.
The other article was the amusing report that the Minneapolis Parks site was hacked by Russians. One has to wonder how reliable any data on the site is now that it's become obvious that it is easily altered by nefarious external parties using very simple methods.
