Matt "vampire squid" Taibbi of Rolling Stone magazine's view on the Journal: "Seeing a Rupert Murdoch publication whine about the meanness and editorial excess of other media companies is almost indescribably hilarious. For sheer preposterousness, I struggle even to come up with credible rivals to this editorial passage. In the ballpark, maybe, is [serial killer] John Wayne Gacy's famed post-arrest complaint: 'I see myself more as victim than perpetrator. I was cheated out of my childhood.'"
