I'm in Newark.

Apparently, it's not enough for Van Auken to blow his bowels with his nutty little WSWS.org, so he had to wipe his ass on the Indy. Sigh. Did you guys have a serious hole to fill, or what?
Posted by: | May 01, 2006 at 12:21 AM
Van Auken wrote a good analysis of the situation, something WSWS does often enough that I'm a reader. I don't have to accept every prescription to learn something from all kinds of different people.
Did you even read the article? There's commenting on the Indy's website -- take it up with him there.
