Here's a sample of Wolcott's writing style. From the Foxnews article.

"One of the absurdities of Hume's Special Report is that it is so claustrophobically right-wing that anyone who appears on the panel contracts a slow-moving case of Stockholm syndrome. For diversity of opinion and complexion, the all-stars call upon the presence of Juan Williams, host of daily call-in show Talk of the Nation on National Public Radio. To Yosemite Sam conservatives, always hopping mad about something, the soothing voices of NPR - where the women sound like they're making a clay pot on the turntable and the men sound as if they want to help - are the pigeon coos of modestly upscale liberalism, progressivism as a tone poem. When the camera is on Williams, however, he starts to wobble, unsure of himself, trapped in enemy territory and grappling with a shallow identity crisis - wait I'm an NPR guy...."

He couldn't be more wrong, (except for the description of the voices at NPR) but who cares? The guy cracks me up!
