Letters to the Editor

Could we get someone better
Isn't there someone else Salon could pay to be a high profile columnist? I pay a subscription to read interesting and challenging articles by good writers, not her self important, arrogant and uninformed drivel.
And if you think the fact that I am writing a letter means you are succeeding (the no such thing as bad publicity argument) understand I DON'T read her stuff. I read and skimmed enough of a sampling to know that she's horrible. I skipped to her global warming comments only to confirm that she was indeed rejecting the theory (since the line in the article description might have been a misleading teaser). Of course my assumptions were confirmed.
If there was somewhere else to write other than hear to state my complaint I would. I hate that Salon's staff is probably looking at the large volume of letters generated by her columns and sees that as a positive sign.
I'd like to see Joan Walsh come out and defend some of the nonsense Paglia spews in her articles and why they feel she's important enough to be given such prominant billing on Salon.
