Here's why the Post's "Mouthpiece Theater" sucked so bad

2009-08-06_1400I think the Hillary “bitch” joke gave the Post the perfect excuse to dump its embarrassing video series. The show, which featured two reporters casting jokes about pols (each of the jokes was DOA), did highlight some important points, however:

1. Newspapers vying for Web appeal think they can do it on the cheap. They can’t.

2. A ridiculous number of MSM editors and reporters think they are creative, and have many other talents. They don’t.

3. The same people also think art and design have no place online. (I infer this from the goofball setup the Post used for its videos.) They’re wrong.
