OK, I admit, this is kinda a cheap diary, since it’s me shamelessly plagiarizing two of my own comments in last night’s Open Thread. So not much work involved. :) But I wanted to share it more widely. And besides, it’s funny, and I like funny. Especially when the funny is at the expense of overstuffed, way overpaid, pseudo-”journalists” like ol’ Chris the Liz.
First of all a tip o’the hat to Otteray Scribe whose comment in that Open Thread alerted me to the presence of both of Chris’s feet in his mouth (again).
On the same topic, also want to give a shout-out to Durrati’s diary today on Chris’s fail. If you haven’t read it, go read it.

There was some seriousness among the hilarity:
Shoq concurs.
And….
Yeah. But back to the main question (although it may just have been answered):
Dan Nguyen has an answer…..
Oooooh, that hurt. So Himself weighs in…
… and lives to regret it.
Meanwhile, back in the center ring:
Good analogy.
John’s on to something.
Well, there is that.
And, saving for last, perhaps my favorite….
Yes, Chris, please do. And enjoy the replies! Hope CNN management is reading your feed. :) But don’t worry, I’m sure it doesn’t matter to them.
