    @ Anne in NYC

    You raise a good point, but I suspect that Ms. Harding is doing the best she can with what she has. At least she isn't writing about high heels or underwear or some wank site. I suppose that Salon's editors are just purveying to their readers' purient interests in giving prostitutes the front page and filling Broadsheet with titillating stories about...tits. Missing black kids just aren't as sexy as high heels.

    Again, thank you, Ms. Harding. I'm been critical of you in the past, but you've made me proud. Now, if only these black kids had been tarted up like Jon Benet Ramsey...and been blond...and white...and rich.
