'Linda McMahon: Can She Shake the WWE Image?'

The headline over this post is the headline over the other major Linda McMahon story in today’s Connecticut newspapers: a long reflection on her U.S. Senate candidacy in the Connecticut Post, the Stamford Advocate, and others.

Reporter Neil Vigdor (who, admirably, earlier did the most aggressive examination of the implications for McMahon of the death of WWE wrestler Eddie “Umaga” Fatu) does not undertake the more comprehensive biography found in the Hartford Courant. It’s more of a rat-a-tat against the values of WWE television content, with the quotes of state Democratic party chair Nancy DiNardo and the controversy over the disappearance from YouTube of clips of racy skits at the forefront.
