Time was, the Las Vegas Sun was an extremely left wing newspaper and they were not afraid to take on conservatives or anybody else.
Now, the editorials seem like they have been written by Barney, the big purple dinosaur. They seem to be avoiding anything controversial and they are only running, on their web site, 1 editorial a week.
This Sunday, they thanked Veterans for their sacrifice. The week before they said they support libraries. Ooohhh, what hard hitting editorials. Before that, they mildly ripped Congress, restated their belief on Yucca Mountain and improving education. Thees were probably rehashed editorials from past years.
What happened when the Sun ran editorials demanding higher taxes on everything that breathed, an editorial that wanted death and destruction on Florida just for political reasons, or even a editorial about the Tea Party.
So, what is going on over at the Sun? I know they cut several workers a few months ago but you would think they still have enough workers to writer an editorial or two. Maybe they are afraid that they will look like fools, but that never stopped them before.
Or, maybe they are like the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, maybe they finally got a brain.
I drove by the Las Vegas Sun today on the I-215 and I could have sworn I heard this coming from their building:
