Anything in USA Today is slanted to draw right-wingers, dependent on petroleum, to come screaming out of their driveways swinging an axe. A desk-clerk at a hotel once tried to refuse me a room because I said I didn't want the "Complimentary Copy of USA Today."
It's a garbage rag that proves the adage - "If you can't write, just make a list." Go get a copy of the New York Times or something.
