A while back, the Washington Post ran a wonderfully-told story on Washington City Paper, an alternative weekly newspaper which – whether you live in DC or not – has some damn fine articles on offer.
I did, however, have to chuckle when Slate's David Plotz – one of City Paper's alumni – recalled in a recent Gabfest podcast that City Paper used to have "many senior editors, who were senior to no-one and who edited nothing".
I'm going to use that line over and over.
