[Ipg-smz] [Ipg-l] Wall St. Journal is hiring but ...

[Tom Henderson]

Is there a moral question in working for a Murdock publication? Or is it 
too altruistic of me to believe that writing for a publication whose 
editorial bias is the nearly opposite of mine is immoral? It's not that 
I'm anti-capitalist, rather, I find their political leanings nearly the 
polar opposite of my own. I wouldn't take their money.
