More shark-jumping at Main and Midland

As an email recipient of the Lexington Herald Leader's daily missives, I've gotten used to seeing recycled blog stories headlined as "Breaking News," but this is ridiculous.

In this morning's AM Newsletter, mixed right in with various news stories, is a rambling, pointless opinion column from Merlene Davis about Sarah Palin's pregnant daughter.

It gets better. Look at how they labeled this silliness. Is there any doubt this "mistake" wouldn't happen if someone were opining about Barack Obama's family?
