So Clifford Bryan, who writes the Michelle Obama column for Examiner.com, wrote about the Obamas' marriage. Is it a marriage of convenience?
Would part of the deal be that Michelle Obama, we don't know how to say this any other way, but would part of the deal be that the First Lady would teach Barack how to be more black ? In return they would share a once in a life time experience. Is the marriage part of brand Obama ?
Fine. Hooray for Citizen Journalism. Hooray for extra spaces before question marks.
But you know the crazies are going to start quoting him now. It's a legitimate article, after all! It came from Examiner.com!

When it comes to Citizen Journalism, we need to cull the herd and and sort them out according to worthiness. It's like Nielsen ratings for TV.
I mean, that poor guy thinks he's got it. He's got the scoop on the Obamas marriage, and more than this, He Did It His Way.
He should have married Missy Elliot if he wanted to look blacker. No offense to the First Lady, but I think I get more jiggy with it than she does.
Yeah...the Examiner is becoming very well known for its journalistic integrity.
The only way I see the chaff being separated from the wheat is by monetization. The question is will consumers pay for content that they know has been fact-checked and moves beyond any simpleton's opinion?
I just thought twice about that. They won't. Those who take opinion for fact, or seek out the slime to support their own ignorant point of view would never part with their money in search of the truth.
So maybe the Nielsen-like rating system is a good way to go. Either that, or maybe a banning of the internet.
Blanca, but she fist-bumps! You can't get groovier than that! If only she spoke Jive!
Anonymous, I saw yesterday a local (Maryland) politics Examiner post, and it had spelling mistakes on every other line. I think the Examiner.com is nothing but a sophisticated scam.
