All the news that's fit to print "If you want to be a real progressive, keep reading the New York Times"
Background point one: For those who do not follow left wing word usage, progressive is the preferred, supposedly more palatable, term for liberal.
Background point two: For those who have not read Instapundit in recent months, Glenn Reynolds has a new book, An Army of Davids, which is getting remarkably positive reviews. Not terribly surprising given Reynolds' well-known ability to "make even the dumbest sh** interesting."
Now, onwards to the body of the post.
A member of the Angry Left who goes by "Social Justice" has posted on Amazon an unhinged of review the book. This of itself is not terribly notable. What is notable is the reviewer's astute comprehension of the New York Times. Here's an excerpt from the review:
Right-Wing TrashMight make a good slogan for the Times' marketing department: If you want to be a real progressive, keep reading the New York Times.
I've been and educator, journalist and activist for over 30 years and I am sick and tired of this right-wing trash.... I know I will do my part to keep this manifesto away from schools and our children. If you want to be a real progressive, keep reading the New York Times or go to real blogs such as DailyKos.
