Sad quote from a blogger
"I don't want to be a journalist. They edit things to death. Two copy editors have to look at everything. What the hell is that? It's boring. I can swear. I can fly off the handle. I do it all the time. If people don't like it, tough."
That's from Markos Moulitsas, who runs the Daily Kos.
Nicole Stockdale is a copy editor at The Dallas Morning News, but the opinions here are her own. Please leave comments and send e-mail; she never copy-edits correspondence.
