More on the McSweeney’s Newspaper

The New York Times:

Called San Francisco Panorama, the editors say it is, in large part, homage to an institution that they feel, contrary to conventional wisdom, still has a lot of life in it. […]

As the name suggests, the focus will be local—the lead story is an investigative piece about the cost overruns on the reconstruction and retrofitting of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge—but correspondents are weighing in from as far away as Afghanistan and on cultural scenes as un-local as Nascar.

And McSweeney’s is using Spot.us to raise funds for the Bay Bridge story.
