East Hampton Star Publishes Op-Ed in the form of a Book Review

It’s becoming all too commonplace for reviewers with political agendas to use the occasion of reviewing a political book as an excuse to rant about their own, half-baked notions. Why don’t these people write their own books, and review mine?

    It’s the “Howard Cosell Method”. You know, before Cosell sportscasters just reported the sporting event facts. After Cosell, the sportscaster is as much a part of the story as the actual event. It was a terrible shift in the news which we’ve never recovered from.

    Wow. That was actually a very positive review, despite the author disagreeing with you on a couple of points.

    I think your umbrage is uncalled for.
