Instead of "by Frank Girardot" shouldn't these blog entries say "copied and pasted by Frank Girardot". Frank, when is the last time you actually left the office to report on a news story? It seems that you either copy and paste real reporters work, or go on a personal opinion rant. Do you consider your personal opinion "news"?
