In my recent experience, the WSJ is about on the same level as Fox news. When I was in college the WSJ had a stellar reputation for integrity. Not so much anymore.
Aren't both Faux News and WSJ owned by the same guy now?

What you do at Christmas does not matter so much; What counts are the Christmas things you do all year through.

FNC, NYT, LAT, WSJ...they're all propaganda machine and which ones someone would say are or aren't will be tied to their political affiliation.

Luckily, Google's proposed solution doesn't involve any kind of proxying. Users just get routed to the local cache server colocated in an ISP's facility instead of going out over the net. The cache server itself worries about getting the content over the net.

It's a great idea.

Another solution that the big ISPs scoff at is public peering. Google peers at TorIX in Toronto. All traffic to Google, YouTube, etc. on ISPs that connect to TorIX (and most CLECs do, see »torix.net/peers.php) can peer with Google and effectively offload all Google-related transit.

We used proxy servers for edge caching and it was great (and optional).

Meanwhile it's sad what passes for journalism these days.
