TODAY'S WORD ON JOURNALISM is a free "service" sent to the 1,500 or so misguided subscribers around the planet. If you have recovered, send "unsubscribe." Or if you want to afflict someone else, send me the email address and watch the fun begin. (Disclaimer: I just quote 'em; I don't necessarily endorse 'em. In theory, though, all contain at least a kernel of insight.) Responses and rebuttals welcome.
