Bored Anonymous and Pathetic?

Well, I'd been looking for a new tagline (link):
"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me....I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig's real mom. And I said, Come on, are you kidding me? We're gonna answer this? Do you not believe me or my doctor? And they said, No, it's been quite cryptic the way that my son's birth has been discussed. And I thought, Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism."
Afterthought:I never figured the "Trig's real mom" story was worth a lot of effort--not so much as, say, how to account for her goofy behavior in the hours just before it was born. But the ferocity of her defense now is interesting. I wouldn't say that where there's smoke,there's fire, but I would say that s sensible city editor might want to know more.
