Nothing like a hardy Merry Christmas from the liberal media


Merry Christmas from The Seattle Times
By Mithridate Ombud | December 24, 2007 - 02:09 ET
On this holy Sunday, just before the celebration of the birth of the Christian Savior, The Seattle Times decided it needed something Christmas related for its Entertainment & Arts section. Not just something that reflects the values of 92% of the country, like a church service, a Christmas play, or a church choir. No, this has to be something that represents The Seattle Times values. Seattle Times arts writer Michael Upchurch certainly found it.

The Seattle Times decided the front page should include the "tawdry glamour" and "warped yuletide spirit" of "drag legend Dina Martina - a big boned chanteuse of stage and dive". So bundle up the kids in their Sunday best and brave the cold night so that your family may celebrate the birth of the Lord at "The All-New Dina Martina Christmas Show".

That's not the Seattle Times. That's the Seattle Stranger, the "alternative"/underground Seattle newspaper. You know, the paper most big cities have that have info about nightclubs, gay bars, hookers, etc. I'm not surprised at all to see such a picture on the cover of the Stranger, though I'm no less disgusted.
