Here in Moore County, the owners of our local thrice twice-weekly Peabody Award-winning, hallucination-inducing newspaper are the same bunch who perfected the concept of lefty media bias over decades at The Raleigh News & Observer.

The "Moral Monday" nonsense is still raging at the legislative building in Raleigh. It's even spawned a sequel: "Witness Wednesday."
