The Wild Journalist

I got a little political today on 100 Words Or Les Nessman with my treatment of Wild Journalists as a dying breed of animal.

The legendary Wild Journalist was reknowned for its drab plumage, tireless hunting of facts, and hard-nosed competitive nature.

Down through the ages, onlookers would stand in awe of its relentless pursuit of news, serving the public's interests by seeking out and spearing vermin among public office and commerce with acid tongue and razor-sharp wit. No community was complete without its population of Wild Journalists serving to guard them from vicious predators.

Once common, today the Wild Journalist's numbers have greatly declined in recent years, thinned by various domesticated breeds: Celebrity Asskissers, Empty-suited Egos, Craven Appeasers, Corporate Tools, and Agenda-Driven Propagandists.

It's odd how we bloggers still hunt them for their pelts.
