I hate to hit on the same editorial twice, but I’m just curious… has the Seattle Times ever editorialized their concerns over Microsoft’s operating system dominance, which peaked at 98% of the market? And if Google were a local company, would they be concerned over its dominance of online advertising now?
Hmm….
What happened to Ask Jeeves?
doing his part for the taxpayers, uw preznit mark emmert refuses pay raise and will work for mere $905k again next year. emmert is so righteous, that he didn’t put off his decision until after the apple cup when his leverage for pay raise could skyrocket with a huskies win.

on Hillary
Exciting. One thing to watch out for though. Her aide Ira Magaziner is widely credited with effing up Hillarycare I. The same fellow has foreign policy job at the Clinton Center but I do not think many people regard him as other than a pompous hack.
She also effed up during her campaign by choosing poor administrators.
So, while I am certain she will be a good player on policy and a heavyweight in any negotiation, I do hope that she ALSO has help in the ordinary business of setting up an administration. I won’t get scared until I hear Magaziner is going anyplace in foggy bottom!
Hillary Clinton has been on the (wrong) right wing side of every major foreign policy move over the last 16 years or so. Why on earth will she be a ‘good player’ now?
Just a few:
Iraq war favoring intervention
not negotiating with so called rogue nations
Bombing Serbia
Bombing Iraq during her husbands term
“Plan Columbia”
wanting to attack Iran
Oh and to answer the original question–No the Seattle Times won’t say anything bad about MS’s monopoly nor will they support Airbus getting contracts even as they continue to tell us how great ‘free trade’ has been.
As long as Hillary will never be prez, Obama can make her Queen of the Ball, for all I care.
Fortunately, the bitch won’t live forever.

How did this become a “Hillary” thread?
