I am pleased to see that I am not the only individual in this world who believes that Farhad Manjoo has commited specious acts of anti-journalism in his reporting of the 2004 election results. I find it unfortunate, however, that Mr. Manjoo has chosen to cut his teeth on RFK, Jr.
In 15 years of educational testing and statistical reporting and measurement, I think I can tell when the statistics simply do not reasonably support a given position, or proposition -- and I can tell simply by looking at a properly constructed graph.
Farhad's contention that there is no, "proof," of election fraud in the 2004 results is simply dishonest.
I've said it before and I will repeat myself but once more: Farhad Manjoo needs to find another ship of fools to play, "Gilligan's Island," with. I am about done with this three hour tour with Salon and am certainly willing and able to take my customer loyalty, and my money, elsewhere.
