The "Dog-Bites-Man" quality of the thread title was just too good to resist.
Guess I'm dense, but I have no idea what this statement means. Can you clarify?
"Dog Bites Man" is not news. "Man Bites Dog" IS news. An old newspaper adage.
Absolutely off topic, but I just heard an old newspaper guy complaining that in all his years at a paper they printed many page one stories about dogs biting men and declined to print any of the wacky stories about men biting dogs. He said he bristles whenever he hears that saying.
On topic: I HATE the title Binary Sunset. It's one of the worst things 1997 did to Star Wars.

Well, that may partially explain why newspapers are in such bad shape financially.
