You watch Reliable Sources. Haven't you heard the Kalb brothers, that woman from Annenberg, and several others say things that imply just that?

An amusing observation on Tom Friedman

Many political bloggers and pundits have spent a great deal of time wee-weeing all over themselves about the "transformation" of NY Times columnist Thomas Friedman after 11 September. Jay Nordlinger is not one of them:

I once wrote, in despairing over Tom Friedman, that he “knows about 100 times more about the Middle East than most of us will ever know, in that he has devoted much of his career to that region.” He has won a thousand awards, has been accorded endless honor.

But it’s hard to see how his reputation as a sage can survive the columns he is writing.


Ouch.
