So, Clark Kent is patrolling Metropolis (solo!) in the WGBS newscopter, and of course, a crisis comes up:
Well, of course, he deals with the crisis, and of course, he returns with the news story, right?
What?!?
Of course you "could have" caught yourself on film!! Peter Parker did it all the time!!! (True, it never made sense that he was able to, but--comic books, man!!) The "super-brain" from Krypton couldn't figure out a way to set a camera to automatically take pictures while he's in action?
Of course, one could question WGBS' judgement, as well, for sending up a reporter solo in a copter, and expecting a civilian to fly it AND take news photos at the same time...
Oh, Clark...
Funny you should mention Jonah, Morgan...because just as Kent is no Parker, you, sir, are no J. Jonah Jameson.
From Superman #297 (1976)

Is there actually a Jonah in the story, or is that a wink at JJJ?
I believe he was making a reference to the biblical Jonah there, as there is no other Jonah anywhere in the issue. Of course, Jonah wasn't particularly unlucky so...?
But of course, it's also a wink at JJJ...
The biblical Jonah has always been considered an ill omen by sailors, so I'd guess it refers to that (as well as the JJJ reference)
