Drole, I'm disappointed. You didn't point out that his/her only slur about The Austin American Statesman was that it was in Texas. I guess the point was to trade on some stereotype about Texas, but from a rhetorical standpoint it was poor.

Of course, I'm from Texas, so automatically anything I say has no merit.


eta - and is it some pro-Israeli thing to not bother to read or research the writer of something you don't like? The newspaper for which I write had a gentlemen writing in to support the Israeli raid on the Gaza aid flotilla, and he actually wrote the he stopped reading an article he had been pointed to when it diverged from his opinion. Really? At that point you figure, why bother? He's obviously living in his own little world where his opinion is right because it is his opinion and anyone who disagrees or has an alternative viewpoint is obviously wrong because they don't agree with him. It's startling how often one runs across that.
