A Chequer-Board of Nights and Days

One Cannot Beat Up Too Much On Naomi Klein . . .

So I refer you to this excellent and comprehensive critique of her utterly dishonest and shoddy book attacking Milton Friedman.

I have written it before. I shall write it again: There is something utterly appalling about having people like Klein, who lack both talent and integrity as writers and pundits, taking on Friedman, who of course is no longer around to defend himself. It's comical that they can't execute the attacks against Friedman with any degree of competence and if Friedman was still around, he would make mincemeat of Klein's arguments . . . and do it with a smile.

There are plenty of bloggers who unthinkingly endorse Klein's work. That is a stain both on their critical thinking skills, and their reputations for honesty as pundits.
