The Virginian Pilot’s got to Virginian Pilot; a parody of a paper.



The Virginian Pilot’s got to Virginian Pilot; becoming a parody of a paper.

The headline is devoted to the death of a 101-year-old who’s a threeper: a black woman mathematician.  

The rest of the front page is devoted to the Global Warming scam.

Page 2 advertises Bernie Sanders’ coming to Virginia Beach in anticipation of Super Tuesday.

There follows an article on a public official charged with fraud.  

To make sure we don’t forget that all white people are irredeemable racists we have the photo and brief bio of the first Black man to attend – but not graduate – from Virginia Tech.  Other than the race of the individual we are left to guess why this article was written.

Finally, on page 4 we have an article about President Donald Trump’s historic visit to India which give the Associated Press writers the opportunity to sneer at the President and First Lady.

having read more of this skinny tabloid than is my usual habit, I then turned to the comics page which, in my opinion, is more grounded in truth and reality than the rest of the Virginia Pilot.
