In Klein vs. Greenwald, CJR declares Klein the winner:
Contrary to the overblown claims of journalistic malpractice that Greenwald is leveling, what Klein is actually guilty of doing is taking a story that has been reported elsewhere, and sexing it up with some anonymous sources to make it sound like he’s onto something that no one else understands. There’s nothing “mindless” about it, and it’s neither propaganda nor does it toe the government line. It’s just the truth.
How is it that in print, one can say something and prove it by saying the exact opposite? Is it because no one reads any more?
Or maybe this is just deep, deep sarcasm.
