Glenn Greenwald's enthusiastic demolition of Jeffrey Goldberg for hurling antisemitism charges at anyone he disagrees with is surely one of the best blogposts I've ever read, and a reason that the blogosphere is replacing the MSM. Writing/discourse doesn't get better than this. The piece might actually shift Goldberg's reputation to that of the glib pamphleteer, and thereby help marginalize him. Note particularly the reference to Goldberg's "extreme dishonesty" in putting out blatant falsehoods in the New Yorker in 2002-2003 to push the U.S. into war, a journalistic event the New Yorker surely regrets. Never forget: the MSM failed us on Iraq.
