The LA Times gets it wrong

Reader Diana Magrann draws our attention to this lame column on Eason Jordan by media critic David Shaw in today’s Los Angeles Times: “The blog squad can add another notch to its belt.” Diana has written to Shaw to point out that he “appears to overlook the fact that Mr. Eason Jordan’s comments in Davos were neither unclear nor unique. Indeed, he had been making similar statements since 2002, and as recently as last November.” For Shaw’s edification, Diana also links to the information provided here and elsewhere to support her points. But Shaw is only pretending to be clueless, isn’t he?
