Furor Over Local Drag Queen’s Front Page Newspaper Appearance Reminds Us People Still Reading Newspapers
THE SHOT — Maci Dixx, a drag queen in Washington State performing at a college drag contest, as she appeared on the front page of the McClatchy-owned Tri-City Herald, which caused readers to write in questioning whether the editors have a “tabloid mentality.” In a poll asking readers whether the newspaper should print photos of drag shows (!), so far 59% say yes.

The numbers are probably not reflective of the small town they’re in… Instead, it’s been the subject of at least two or three “get out the vote” drives from websites (like this one).
All told, though, it’s nice to see we’ve won one of these e-ballot-stuffing efforts!
