"April Fools day has come and passed. and your the biggest fool at last!!"

That was a taunt issued in my youth to those playing April Fools day jokes a day late. It would appear that the Executive Editor Bill Keller, of the New York Times -- didn't get the word.

On April 2nd, while speaking at Stanford California, he said:


"On the NYT: Keller predicted that the Times will be "left standing after the deluge." Noting that readers have offered to donate money to keep the Times alive, Keller suggested that GM probably isn't getting similar offers.

Commenting on the keep-the-Times alive movement, Keller said: "Saving the New York Times now ranks with saving Darfur as a high-minded cause." "

Apparently life on the 80th floor keeps your head in the clouds and not on the street! Hard to believe the cajones of this cowboy!!!
