"End Times" by The Daily Show

Despite what is really happening in today's economy, you have to laugh at this, and props to the NY Times for having a sense of humor.

->> I loved Bill Keller's answer/reaction after Jason Jones told his joke, "What's black and white and read all over?"

Definitely got a hearty laugh out of this.

->> I didn't think this was funny. I know it was supposed to be and if I wasn't graduating this Saturday maybe I would have laughed. The sad fact, besides the state of our industry, is that many young people watching this outside the ss message board probably think newspapers are just like the internet, only old, outdated and relatively expensive. I know I am preaching to the choir when I say the difference is like night and day.

->> Diego,

As a student about to enter this world, which many have been forced out of recently, you have to understand that sometimes laughing at your own misfortune is the only way to survive times like these.

The questions you need to ask is - did your profs tell you about the current climate and did you agree to continue down that path? If yes to either then try to see the absurd humor because I can guarantee the anger you feel will only hamper your search for a job.

And really - it is all pretty funny.
