No Wonder Newspapers Are In Trouble

The Freep is running this gem of an article today, by driving columnist Matt Helms:

How to avoid state seat belt crackdown

Uhm…it takes a whole article to say, “Buckle the hell up, idiots?” This is not a complicated concept, folks, and it is certainly not deserving of an entire newspaper article. That goes double when said article consists pretty much entirely of telling people where the enforcement zones are, and only includes the admonition to buckle up as part of a photo caption.
