"Robert Fisk: Ariel Sharon has walked into a trap. And we are following him"
We? I am sure this rant will will be efficiently fisked in the bloggerverse by morning's end...William Sjostrom (via Instapundit) offers an excellent deconstruct.
Fisk has become an Internet Quisling... it is ironic and deeply satisfying to realize that his obituary will be footnoted:
verb. To deconstruct an article on a point by point basis in a highly critical manner. Derived from the name of journalist Robert Fisk, a frequent target of such critical articles in the blogosphere (qv).
Usage: "Orrin Judd did a severe fisking of an idiotic article in the New York Times today..."
Thus his career is diminished by his own words. Doesn't get any better than that.
UPDATE: Michele (A Small Victory) harshes Fisk's mellow.
> Derived from the name of journalist Robert Fisk
Good thing his name wasn't Fist.
;)
you are soooo bad.
