All the Toys Go Cha Cha Cha
My Monday WFMU radio program. Listen as I misannounce songs, say a living jazz singer is dead, get years wrong, & try to read from tiny CD liner notes. In other words, another typically excellent free form show. Includes one of my all-time fav pop songs.
The staff of the [Newark] Star-Ledger won a Pulitzer Prize in the "Breaking News" category for "its comprehensive, clear-headed coverage of the resignation of New Jersey’s governor after he announced he was gay and confessed to adultery with a male lover." The McGreevey Scandal. The arts & letters prizes were laughably predictable.

"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be." Thomas Jefferson
I found it ironic that the two Star-Ledger reporters who wrote the article on McGreevey's personal life and who were jumping for joy in the newspaper obtained some of their prize-winning information through less-than-ethical means and also used the Governor's Office for some personal perks that will probably never end up in the paper. But I don't want to elaborate here.
