In which Mary Mapes hits for her average

Bill Ardolino at INDC Journal comments on an excerpt of Mary Mapes’s forthcoming book. Ardolino’s post is “Mary Mapes names names (anonynous ones).” Ardolino quotes this statement from page 201 of the book:

On Web sites such as Powerline, INDC Journal, Allahpundit, and Spacetownusa, the bravehearts of the blogging world worked anonymously in what appeared to be huge numbers, in unison, to destroy the Bush-Guard story, to uphold one another’s wild and hateful claims, to outshout, outargue, and outblog anyone who dared to disagree.
