HERO COMPLEX reports that in this week's Superman #13, Clark Kent quits the Daily Planet (which is now apart of a media conglomerate) due to the over arching sensationalism in journalism.
And what will he do now that he's quit....create the next Huffington Post or The Drudge Report according to writer Scott Lobdell.
Wait, didn't the Huffington Post get bought by AOL? So he's leaving a media conglomerate to start his own news blog that will probably get bought by a media conglomerate. Yeah....OK.
See you'd think in the revamp of The New 52, The Daily Planet would be a news blog like The Drudge Report that fights against big corporate media and its dangers in society.
But that might not fly well with Time Warner which owns DC Comics and Warner Brothers.
Class Dismissed,
The Professor
