Title: Nebraska's "Most Radical State Senator" in The Reader
Post by: Mudinyeri on May 09, 2011, 12:49:55 PM

The Reader, that bastion of local Omaha journalism, has published an article about Sen. Mark Christensen who they call "Nebraska's Most Radical State Senator".  Obviously skewed, the article paints Sen. Christensen as a gun-totin', God-fearin' ... idiot.  I'm surprised he granted the interview.

If they leaned just a little further, maybe they'll fall off the cliff!!

I wonder if this was before or after the "alternative" medicine and astrology sections?

That's quite the hatchet job. Disgusting journalism, not even a pretension of being objective.
