Salon has no credibility on this issue. Your coverage of it has been a source of frustration from the beginning. Manjoo jumped on this from the get go, well before much of the data was gathered and presented. He was vehement from the start in denouncing any particulars and merits of the argument as well as those who defended it. Manjoo is not the fellow Salon should repeatedly allow to comment on the issue. Salon owes its readers a more evolved, less rabidly biased discussion of Kennedy's presentation of the data.
