Video Kills the Radio Czar.

There's an editor over there at the Wall Street Journal who is so pleased with himself right about now he could burst. And rightly so. Congratulations, anonymous headline hero!

That headline is almost as good as the 1929 one, “Wall Street Lays An Egg.”  I think it was in Variety.

 Wodehouse's headline for the Chilean miners: "Sons of Toil Under Tons of Soil"

The NY Post is dialing this guy frantically like the WaPo for Jen Rubin.  And hoo-boy!  O'Keefe's got this thing set up like billiard balls.  Running the table, each shot planned.  Talk about results.

I'm starting to warm to this O'Keefe guy. When even the stodgy Journal news side gets giddy over what you've done, you know you are shaking the pillars of Hell.

 Claire, you found a gem.  It's early March, but that one will be hard to top.
