Can I watch?

But if they are insistent on pursuing a strategy of charging for content, it seems like making it accessible to readers online, but for a fee, seems far more forward thinking than keeping it offline.

Would anybody willingly pay for the privilege of reading the entire Chron online?

Let me guess: Democrats are divided, and Republicans are on the upswing.

Personally I enjoy Chron/SFGate because I find their ineptitude, timidity, and PC-ness to be hilarious and perversely inspiring. I propose a toast to the local media arena’s court jester.

However, the Gate does have a comics page that seems to have most of them. Shylock Fox’s puzzle was especially challenging today!

It is the only reason I would ever want to buy the Chron anymore…
