After months and months of promising a new infuriatingly dopey newspaper, former Main Line Times wonk Kevin Williamson has delivered us The Evening Bulletin, which shamefully invokes the newspaper some of us grew up with. But only to Center City. But nevertheless, boy has he come through: Article debating Creationism versus Darwinism? Check. Headline proclaiming Bush “conquering” France? Yep. TWELVE PAGES of marathon results? Jesus Christ, they can’t be serious. On the other hand, they’re promising an arts and culture section the likes of which not seen in this city in decades. So they must also be really into going broke. You can go look at their site, but apparently, they’re not so much with the internets. Maybe it’s like the publisher said in the Inky last week:

“I didn’t test-market the idea,” Rice said. “I didn’t create any huge business plan.”
