This is an email advertisement for the online version of El Pais, Spain's main newspaper which belongs to the PRISA group, the pro-Socialist media organization that, together with its sister SER radio network, was behind the agit-prop campaign after the March 11 bombings. The ad shows before and after 9/11 pictures of the New York skyline with the byline "You can do a lot in a day, just think what you can do in three month."

How can a country that has men like Azanar harbor swine like this?

I know of few people whose native language was Spanish and are named Sheila Anyway Spanish is my other native language and "un dia da para mucho" is litterally "a day gives for much". "Gives for much" is for things like a good pair of shoes allowing you to walk for a zillion miles, well spent money allowing you to do a lot of things, a gas tank allowing you to travel very far and so on. In other words the translation of this guy (who happens to be Spanish) is correct. The translation of your trasnslation would be "Pueden pasar muchas cosas en un díia" not "Un día da para mucho". Now where did you learn your native Spanish? At Mexico or at the DNC?

#6  I definitely do not agree with the translation. My native language is Spanish. The translation should read: "A lot can happen in one day, Imagine what could happen in 3 months". And continues by saying if you subscribe to EL PAIS now, you get 3 months for free.

#5  a lot like the New York Times

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2004--The New York Times announced today that it will launch its New York Times International Weekly in Germany's Suddeutsche Zeitung, Spain's EL PAIS and Italy's La Repubblica beginning this month.

#4  Spain's largest print newspaper is El Pais. For years, this 434,000-circulation newspaper offered its content online for free and attempted to generate profits primarily through banner-advertising revenues. But the site bled red ink doing so, despite half a million unique monthly users. So, Mario Tascón, general director of content for Prisacom SA, the chain that publishes El Pais (and himself an online publishing veteran), ordered the site to switch to a totally paid-access business model last December.

Big enough that they can charge for on line usage. Not Air America by any stretch. More like the New York Times.

#3  Hmmmmmmm. Wonder how bad they could fuck up the train service in Madrid in three months?

#2  Is the PRISA group more analogous to, say, CBS or to Air America in terms of its size and reach?

#1  al-Andalusian Pigs. Might the editor get the picture out of the link and into the body of the message? Scurrilous, absolutely scurrilous.
