Newspaper Endorses the Candidate It's Suing Over Copyright 166
An anonymous reader writes "Remember Righthaven? The copyright troll owned by the owner of the Las Vegas Review-Journal? You may remember, then, that Righthaven had sued Nevada Senate candidate Sharron Angle for posting LVRJ stories on her site. At the same time, LVRJ has been having its execs talk about how copyright infringement is no different than garden variety theft. So ... doesn't it seem a bit odd that the LVRJ is endorsing the very same candidate that it sued for such 'theft'?"

I only read newspapers for the hilarity of their inaccuracy and the absurdity of what they leave in and what they leave out.
So you are frequenting slashdot for its journalistic excellence, lack of absurdity, and total adherence to the truth.

They're trying to get her to repost the endorsement so they can file an additional lawsuit.

Did you get sued for it? Maybe you should think about running for office.
"The fart party: we promise to break the political gridlock in washington and also promise to break wind."
Maybe democrats should look into this as a method of getting past fillibustering everything: there's probably not a rule against farting in the face of the speaker to make him pass out (thus breaking the fillibuster). It's also not like that would be beneath the dignity of the senate.

Bout the only thing I have heard her say that sounded to have some kind of sanity to it was not fluorinating tap water.
