Newsfoxes
I've been having an email exchange with Steve in Madison over the term "newsfox." It's a term coined by his wife, and apparently she used it in reference to Ann Curry who was in her building, reporting on the faked kidnapping of the UW student (crazy story, that).

"Newsfox," he informed me, "is not gender-specific."

He also posed this question: "Does Brian Williams' (NBC) head look like Silly Putty that has lain in half its 'eggshell' for too long? It just looks like one side of his face has been pressed into a very large spoon." I've never noticed myself, but any opinions out there?
