The following headlines were presented as the top three on my Orlando Sentinel news feed this morning:

Transgender woman denied drinks during  ladies night

Florida suspect accused of eating brain due in court

Mom accused of strangling 2-year-old with bra returns to court

The Sentinel is a mainstream, respected newspaper, with several Pulitzer prizes to its credit.  Apparently, supermarket tabloid fare has become the new normal.

Did they miss the flesh-eating aliens that landed outside of Disneyworld? What kind of shoddy reporting is that?

I can hardly stand to open "news" websites anymore. I suppose that renders me out of touch... but then again, maybe not. :\ I think they are out of touch with much of America.
