Aspers adrift in Chamber Pot

On this same day, our national newspaper chain owned by the Asper family - still refusing to believe icebergs are melting - took a break from earth-scoffing long enough to run front page stories about how altruism doesn’t work and why it’s alright for trust fund managers to make unethical investments. While these articles succeeded in attempting to more narrowly define their capacity for moral ineptitude as to resemble the residue of a child’s chamber pot, the rest of the enlightened world, up to three billion TV viewers, were listening to impassioned pleas by world luminaries the likes of Nelson Mandela and Kofi Anan.
