26. When I was very young

Dec 2012

(and I won't say how long ago that was) and living in New York, the Daily News was considered far right conservative. The NY Times was left of center, Newsweek (from the 'burbs) was "progressive." The Post was a gossip rag, "Aliens have landed" mindless crap.

I guess things have changed, as far as the Daily News is concerned.

Wow. Just wow.
