Title: Evil Lesbians?

I was unaware there was a defined subset...

Has journalistic bias become so prevalent we're not even trying to hide it anymore?

listen, when you kill a kid evil isn't bias enough.  Diabolic comes to mind.

Now you are going to say the point was labeling lesbians as evil.  I can concur with your concern but I can also bring up some pretty compelling arguements about the need for a father/mother relationship in a kid's development.

I have to give the paper credit though, they managed to get me incensed over the description of the attack done by an adult on a kid.

In my perfect world, child killers don't get a trial or an appeal, just execution on the spot.

But if it didn't say "evil" in the headline, how on earth was I gonna know how to feel about it?

You expect me to start my weekend not knowing what that lesbian mother was?  I mean, what if -- what if? -- I had gone out to dinner and a few drinks tonight without knowing if she was evil or good?  How would that have affected my personal serenity?  How would I have been able to have calm conversation with my wife with that nagging at me all night long? "good evil good evil good evil . . . which IS the lesbian mother?"  

No, the Post is right.  Best to know now, at a glance, which she is.  She's too far away, and her life undoubtedly too messy, for me to want to know anymore than the headline.

What's wrong with the Lesbians?  If not for them, we would not have hummus, tabouli, tawook, shawarma, etc.  Great food comes from that country.
