TURKEY FIXINGS
Blogger Patrick Frey extracts a fake turkey correction from the Los Angeles Times:
Joel Stein � Stein’s Dec. 5 column said a photo showed President Bush holding a fake Thanksgiving turkey during his 2003 visit to U.S. troops in Iraq. The turkey he was holding was real. Also, the name of Nicole Richie, co-star of “The Simple Life,” was misspelled as Ritchie.
This is the second fake turkey correction published in the past year. The mainstream media’s concern for accuracy is stunning.
Look towards the bottom of the menu for “Previous Tim.” (And yes, I know the gray stops before the menu content does. I am still trying to figure that one out.)

Posted by Andrea Harris on 2004 12 14 at 01:58 PM • permalinkWhat the correction doesn’t state, of course, is that the whole bleeding “point” of the “column” was that the “turkey” was “fake,” and what that “revealed” about “Bush’s” evil “grip” on “America.”
Of course, the main point stands, right, “Joel”? Ass.
Wow, cool, NO machine will ever go through THAT account creation procedure. None.
OT - On yesterday’s Today Show (?) on Channel 9 with Steve Liebemann and Tracey Grimshaw there was a segment on Life after Death with author Mike Agostini talking about communication with the dead. Giving examples, Agostini said that Dan Rather had seen the ghost of a prominent CBS reporter from yesteryear late at night roaming the CBS offices.
Now I wonder whether Dear Dan has been channeling the dead for his “evidence” against Dubya. He was so convinced that the late Col Killian was very critical of Dubya during his service.
Hey did everyone know that the brothers from IraqtheModel are actually CIA agents?
Where would we be without Leftist conspiracy theories?

Your link XML : http://timblair.net/index.xml
is bad. I can’t feed it in my aggregator
You can test it here:
http://www.feedvalidator.org/The aggregator seems to be having some sort of trouble with certain entities in Tim’s post like the em-dash after “Joel Stein” and apostrophes and so on. Therefore your aggregator should be taken out and shot.
Oh okay, maybe I’ll try to figure out how to set up a more compliant xml thing. Maybe some people here who know about this matter can offer a suggestion. To tell you the truth, I know very little about xml and rss, and the subject has always bored me. People use it to check if a website has been updated, no? I think you can be pretty sure that Tim will have at least one new post a day. Simply make checking the site part of your daily regimen!

Nicole Richie however, has been confirmed as having the IQ of a plastic turkey.
