Heh. Let's see, is it two or three plagerists they've admitted to so far?

Dennis, if you're thinking of Jayson Blair and Judith Miller, neither one of them were "plagerists."

just read the NY Times.

Heh. Let's see, is it two or three plagerists they've admitted to so far? Besides, if KK is a christrian cheerleader (and I wouldn't know since I've never read her), according to the polls, over 86% of the population is self-described christians. So if anything, she's writing for the masses.

Nothing wrong with that unless you're part of the 14% and someone is forcing you to read it.

Don’t all columnists write opinion?

Maybe that’s the problem, maybe KK should be in the editorials. Then she wouldn’t have to write opinion pieces under the thin guise of a column.

I haven’t read either of them to any degree. What I remember about Jones is thinking there must be some clause in his contract that won’t allow the editors to cut his pieces. He’s a wordy blowhard.

Well the big difference between Syl and KK is that Syl writes editorials and KK is a columnist.

Neither tend to write overwhelmingly compelling stuff.
