That's Not How They Cover News in Phoenix, Tacoma, Philadelphia, or Atlanta

My favorite part of this leaked memo (wherein a LA Times editor prohibits bloggers from covering a well-known politician's philandering) is the closing.

Hey bloggers,

There has been a little buzz surrounding John Edwards and his alleged affair. Because the only source has been the National Enquirer we have decided not to cover the rumors or salacious speculations. So I am asking you all not to blog about this topic until further notified.

If you have any questions or are ever in need of story ideas that would best fit your blog, please don't hesitate to ask

Keep rockin,

Tony
