You guys are better than Baghdad Bob. But that was my next guess for what would happen. Before long, the clique will have revised what happened here, and it'll be recalled as another case where the barbarians ran off poor typefitter.

I'll be happy to sum up the thread right now.

A successful writer admitted in his blog that he was really hoping his piece would be nominated for a major award. He was disappointed when it wasn't.

A band of braying dipshits jumped up and down and screamed that he was a horrible, small person, and insulted him until he ripped them back.

Now the dipshits will pretend they didn't act like dipshits, and that Jones' response is evidence of his horribly thin skin. I dunno, maybe it is, maybe it isn't. But I'll say it again, it was spectacularly done, and I'll bet hit closer to home than the targets will ever admit.

The funny thing to me is that people are going apoplectic over Jones saying a journalist who doesn't care if he or she ever earns an audience will be a failure. I don't see how that's even an arguable point. And I don't think anyone would have argued it, but a few people on this thread now get to think they're the shit for sticking it to Chris Jones. Congrats. Gabba gabba hey.

You left out the part about the cloying entourage, Baghdad Bob.

You also forgot to mention that Martin is happy to finally have people responding to his posts after sequestering himself for so long on The Message Board That Must Not Be Named where he is the only member.
