introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your

A contractor in the city of Brooklyn supplied substandard steel wire for the cables being spun on the New York and Brooklyn Bridge. By the time this was discovered, it was too late to remove the bad wire. As a result, the bridge, which was designed to be six times stronger than he thought it would need to be by engineer John Roebling, is only four times stronger than heâd planned on.
Because of the old saying, âif it bleeds it leadsâ News will always be a little disturbing.
But what really upsets most people is all the one sided spin of the more Opinion and Analysis nonsense that dominates all Networks these days. Just tell us what happened and quit telling us why we should be outraged about it!

The camera crew should truss the editor and stay focused to provide a suspension of disbelief by the viewer.

Weakened cable wires? Construction workers with tool belts need not apply. Only hiring workers experienced with âwearing suspendersâ.

Looks like half of the Leonard-Zakim bridge in Boston.

I guess folks just want their bridges and news to be fairly balanced.

IMO, the most artistic of bridges are cable-stayed bridges.
