I could feel better about bad news for the WSJ if I thought it was a sign of bad news for right-wingers. More likely, however, it's a sign of bad news for journalism.

The Web has plenty of sites that aggregate content and lead people to stories developed by other outlets. At some point in the process, though, there has to be a human being who's sitting in the room at the state legislative committee hearing when something important happens. There are fewer and fewer such people.
