Senator proposes nonprofit status for newspapers
By LARRY MARGASAK
WASHINGTON (AP) — Struggling newspapers should be allowed to operate as nonprofits similar to public broadcasting stations, Sen. Benjamin Cardin, D-Md., proposed Tuesday.What about CNBC? Are they next?
Cardin introduced a bill that would allow newspapers to choose tax-exempt status. They would no longer be able to make political endorsements [yeah, right!], but could report on all issues including political campaigns.

Give some credit where it is due... The markets like what the administration is doing. Of course You'll never publish this quote, because the administarator [sic]is a giant _____ who can't take an alternative point of view. Not that anyone reads this piece of ____ blog anyway.I chose to post it like this for two reasons:
1) I wanted to delete the swear words (Why can't libs discuss anything? Instead, they get all emotional.)
2) I don't know which post this comment was aimed at...
