In a July 6 MRC TimesWatch post, Clay Waters reveled in the insults heaped upon New York Times editor Bill Keller in a recent letters section, touting how “The latest edition of the New York Times’ Sunday magazine gave conservatives a rare opportunity to repurpose Times Executive Editor Bill Keller as a pinata” in reaction to a Keller column about Sarah Palin.
Is it really “media criticism” to take such pleasure in seeing people insulted? Waters and the MRC seem to think so.
