The motto of the old Atlanta Journal was, “Covers Dixie Like the Dew”, but now it should be “Hating and Crapping on Georgians for over 130 Years”…

I wouldn’t even line my bird cage with that sorry excuse for a paper.

I remember well the ongoing editorial battle between the Columbus Enquirer (the Ledger was the afternoon paper then) and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The Enquirer’s editor called the Atlanta paper “the gold dust twins”, in reference to their encouragement of greed and pursuit of Yankee business. I was just a young man then, so didn’t read very many of the barbs, but do remember some of it.
