In a sterling example of the type of substantive, hard-hitting news we've come to demand from our esteemed press corps, the AP reports on the color of Mitt Romney's hair: Romney's black hair natural, not dyed. "I don't color it and you can take a real close camera shot and see there's a lot of gray mixed in with all that black," says Romney, and he's telling the truth; having convered him up close, I can attest that the grey streaks are quite obvious at press-conference distance -- how the AP reporter didn't notice that is anyone's guess. So the headline should actually be "Romney's hair natural, not black."
