And They Wonder Why...

The dinosaur media wonders why they are falling further and further into obsolescence....

Seen on Yahoo news today was this headline

Obama promotes fiscal restraint, big spending

That headline was followed by this story....

CHICAGO – President-elect Barack Obama named Peter Orszag as his budget director on Tuesday and said his job will be to conduct a thorough review of federal spending programs, "eliminating those programs we don't need and insisting that those we do need operate in a cost-effective way."

With the economy in crisis, Obama said, "Budget reform is not an option. It's a necessity."

Echoing Abraham Lincoln, Obama added, "I will ask my economic team to think anew and act anew."

Orszag is the director of the Congressional Budget Office, a man who the president-elect said "knows where the bodies are buried."

I sat there at my desk, dumbfounded to the point where a co-worker asked me what was wrong. I said "read this headline" which he did and HE was equally dumbfounded. After sitting there for a couple of minutes, I navigated back to the Yahoo News main page where lo and behold the headline had magically changed.

Someone (hopefully) got spanked for their rampant stupidity.....
