Handsome Devil

“#WelcomeToIndianapolis, where there’s so little going on that a story about a locally trending hashtag on Twitter is the LEAD STORY ON THE STATE’S LARGEST NEWSPAPER’S WEBSITE.”

—Jason Baldwin, Bachelor of Arts, Journalism, Pulliam School of Journalism, Franklin College of Indiana, 1996.

That’s “Pulliam”, as in Eugene C. Pulliam, who owned Central Newspapers, Inc., under whose ownership The Indianapolis Star won two Pulitzers, and whose trustees sold out to Gannett, who gave the world USA Today, in 1999.

No, the future isn’t fucked at all.

    And here I thought our local paper’s celebrity tweet matchup piece was awful non-journalism.
