5 things I think about today’s St. Petersburg Times (6/15)

in Peter/The Bay and the 'Burg by

It’s not the St. Petersburg Times that is drawing my attention today, but it’s sister publication, the TBT, which ran this cover for today’s edition: Unless my eyes are mistaking me, that ain’t Carole Crist in the picture.  Actually, Carole Crist’s ass looks better than this woman’s, so Charlie put your eyes back in your sockets. Howard Troxler addresses just this kind of posturing by politicians.  Not the kind of posturing that has a pol staring at some chick’s t-back,…

Monday’s St. Petersburg Times reminds me why I relented and signed up for a subscription. Of course, the horrifying stories of the Church of Scientology urging women to have abortions is must-read. But so is Tom Jones’ Shooting from the Lip coverage of a weekend of televised sports. What’s not must-read: Ernest Hooper’s Monday column continues to disappoint.  It’s not that Hooper writes anything provoking or ridiculous.  It’s that, with the real-estate granted to Hooper, his column should just explode…

5 things I think about today’s St. Petersburg Times — and, yes, I did ‘out’ the new food critic

Just another bad day for the St. Petersburg Times, which failed to convince a federal judge that the city of St. Petersburg’s new ban on street solicitation should be blocked while the matter winds its way through the courts.  Judge Lazzara said there was no question in his mind that the ordinance was content-neutral, narrowly tailored and that a significant government interest was at stake.
