This is a draw pretty much -- the News gets the rhyming cadence and tortured spelling of vintage Post but the Post counters with simplicity and refreshing colloquialism. Oh yeah and the Times cleared up the headline from the web by pointing out that the Guv was a client. So far the only punishment Spitzer has received is the removal of his upper lip and really, isn't that enough?
Sex shame? Get real -- the world's oldest profession ought to be legal, nothing would cut down on sex trafficking and forced prostitution like registration and unionization.

Jobs: Attention NY Daily News!
Bianculli -- obviously overdressed
According to Rupert Murdoch's New York Post, an unimpeachable source, crosstown rival Daily New's TV critic David Bianculli is due to get his walking papers soon. The Post's anonymous source is quoted as saying "Everyone is horrified. ... I assume it is a money thing. They'll probably replace him with some blogger who sits around in his pajamas." Well Mr. X, if that's the job qualification let me take a minute to throw my hat in the ring. That is if I were wearing a hat and not my pajamas. To be fair some days I do blog in boxer shorts and when it's quite hot, sometimes even in the nude. However I can assure you that if PJ's are the dress code, I will honor that dress code if The Daily News were to choose me as Mr. Bianculli's replacement. Seriously, call me.
