    Dear Ms. Traister,

    I'm sorry, this is a five-feature week for you since your Obamaboying, isn't it? I'd like to nominate you for the 2008 Jake Tapper award. Since your sexist remarks, you've been rewarded amply by Joan Walsh, and I can only hope someone at ABC or another MSM outlet recognizes that you do not belong amongst the shrill progressives and liberals that dominate the Salon letters. You have accumulated enough intellectual dishonesty and Serious Journalist acumen to get you away from this mid-career Salon.com pitstop. I doubt if you can recall the last time you thought you might be wrong about any of your assumptions.

    I wonder if you, Jake and Joan sit around wondering how big of a hit Salon would take if you turfed Greenwald and the naive, unpragmatic ilk with which he has infested this site. You do not want the readership you have. Nothing has been more evident over the past two months.
