Today's Dreck-Pawing

The cogent comments I received on "fisking" moved me to examine some actual Fisk. His most recent contribution is in Counter-Punch.

It is not an examination of the purported subject, a movie that he liked, but rather an article about Fisk--the thoughts, feeling and perceptions of an aging, bigoted Englishman. Now that I think about it, pretty much everything Robert Fisk writes is about the same aging, bigoted Englishman. He would be easy to parody, and I am sure he would love the attention.

Enough pawing through dreck for today.
