Don't get "Fooled Again"

In his new book, Mark Crispin Miller tries to prove that Republicans rigged the 2004 election, but his evidence is thinner than a butterfly ballot.

    See page 349 in the book

    "Farhad Manjoo of Salon" is cited in the Acknowledgments as one of the people to whom Mark Crispin Miller "owe[s] an incalculable debt of thanks".

    So maybe Joan Walsh didn't know this when she assigned the book review to Manjoo; Manjoo should have seen it and should have refused the assignment.

    That he took the assignment anyway shows that his journalistic ethics are, shall we say, thinner than a butterfly ballot.
