I now know why T-P could’t do fact checking on Bobby Jindal

Over on jindalisbad.com, I complained about the T-P and their lack of fact checking on Bobby Jindal. I think I know why they failed to check the facts on our Governor-elect.

Apparently, the T-P was so concerned with getting Al Copeland’s divorce records that they could not be bothered to do some investigative reporting on the claims made by the Bobby Jindal campaign for Governor of Louisiana. And who can really blame them? When I think of the important issues that face Louisiana, everyone must agree that none are more important than finding out exactly why Al Copeland got a divorce. Why worry about the problems of sediment when we can read about the problems of Copeland’s divorce settlement? Why worry about coastal instability when we can discuss spousal infidelity? Raising our levees? Forget that! We need to discuss how Al Copeland’s kids will be raised!

This just proves why I refer to our major newspaper as T-P.
