Eye of Newt and Wing of Mitt

In the world of news and opinion, there is a gastronomy. We likely all would take a different view of its order, just as we do of the menu of content.

But let that not stop me from going "half-baked artisan" by attempting to classify today's fare:

You watch only "Democracy Now!", "The Thom Hartman Show", and the like on FSTV and Link, and read The Nation: You are a raw, local foods person.

You watch Current TV documentaries, listen to progressive radio, and read the Huffington Post blog: You are a vegan.

You watch MSNBC selectively, read The New York Times and The Washington Post: You are a vegetarian.

You watch everything on MSNBC, but give to MoveOn and Common Cause: You are an organic-leaning, occasional carnivore.

You watch CNN and CNBC, check out RedState and Slate.com, and read The Wall Street Journal: You are a meat-and-potatoes, full-time carnivore.

You watch only Fox News, listen to Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck, and read the Washington Times: You butcher your own food (and might be in odd agreement with the raw/local food types).

You try to watch, read, listen to, and share as many divergent views as possible, hamstrung to none: You  are an omnivore and more enlightened than all the above put together.

That's the prayer, now let's eat!
