Timericks from stories by Isaac Stanley-Becker, Liz Clarke, and Allan Sloan




Fox News removes manipulated images from coverage of Seattle protests.
@isaacstanbecker

A network like Fox is too big/to give a hoot or care a fig/if photos mislead/and cause truth to bleed/Miraculous when they renege.



The Confederate flag long has flown in the face of NASCAR’s hopes for broader appeal.
@lizclarketweet

Johnny Reb is long since dead/so why's his flag still in our head?/It's time to tear it down for good/It never stood for Robin Hood . . . 


Don’t think a great stock market means we’ve got a great economy.


The greatest fraud and masquerade/is done by Wall Street when they trade/When stocks go up they wear a crown/then blame the Fed when stocks go down/I'd rather keep my money snug/by hiding it beneath the rug.
