Hiring dyslexic copy editors. Occasionally trying to include hot gravy with every issue. Playing a variation of Russian roulette to determine which pictures will run in which section. Staff meetings replaced by rituals of gerbil sacrificing. Reporters have a nasty habit of bringing a shotgun and bottle of tequila to every interview.
Staff is distracted for hours by smells from food service next door.
So-called journalism convention in Chicago is really an excuse to see Jerry Springer and numerous strip clubs. Instead of working hard on production nights, staffers make cat calls at secretaries and pour hot coffee over the UC railing.
