Someone shat on the editorial page!
I don’t understand how people can write editorials for widely-read newspapers and produce nothing but bloviation. Check out this editorial in the London Times, which raises the bugaboo of “liberal intelligentsia” complaining about the Christian undertones of “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”, but neglects to give even a SINGLE concrete example of such a complaint. Then again, people seem to have no problem hosting cable network “news” shows consisting entirely of bloviation. Amazingly, all these people work for Rupert Murdoch. Interestingly, I recently discovered that in 1980, shortly before he bought the Times, Murdoch acquired a majority share in a large hot-air concern. Apparently this has been fueling the success of his media empire ever since.
