AN OXYMORON’S TALE

A passing thought . . . (Mutually Exclusive terms: “Quad City Times” and “Journalism”)

When I read the Quad City Times I recall a modern American folk story which has been passed down by generations of eastern Iowans .

It tells of the liberal parents whose young child announced that “when I grow up I want to be a columnist or an editor for the Quad City Times.” 

To which the liberal couple had to sadly inform their young offspring: “If you grow up, you can’t be a a columnist or an editor for the Quad City Times!”
