that's so jane's
Why are so many idiots fighting our wars? Is there possibly an analogy to be drawn between the state of our government and the state of television, with Blackwater staffed by a bunch of rejects from
I Love New York and the State Department by a bunch of embittered picketing
Daily Show writers (only the strike has lasted seven whole years)? Well, that's probably a stretch. But we try valiantly to advance the metaphor in today's installment of the much-missed feature "
That's So Jane's!" — in which we trick an unsuspecting expert on the world's military conflicts into granting an interview for
Jane magazine, which he will never know is now defunct because he thinks he's talking to
Jane's Defence Weekly. For this special edition, reporter
Megan Carpentier talked face-to-face with a mercenary himself! (Well, actually just a weapons expert working at the Pentagon.) He thinks the military needs to be more like
Dancing With The Stars. After the jump, of course.
