Well you're mentioned by Joe Klein in it. You should really check it out a very interesting debate is going on over there (again it's the lead story) between Klein and a poster who called Joe out on his poor coverage of the Pentagon general fiasco.
More specifically the poster is on what Joe Klein terms as a "silly little crusade" to simply ask Klein if any of the generals on the Pentagon list were used as his sources. When Klein refused to answer the poster simply asked what Klein's methods were for using a source.
Joe gave a long response. Anyway you should check it out, as you are the only journalist he specifically cites by name in the article. Ever since the absurd Stepho semi-debate and these latest revelations on the Pentagon generals, the media is FINALLY being called to task.

Klein also tries to act like he did a fair and balanced job of covering the surge and didn't just buy the Petraeus kool-aid on the so-called "surge." We all know that's not true.
