Integrity and slime, in old media and new

Newt Gingrich blames liberalism, the Sunday Times of London blames "a feminised society." So many opinions, so little enlightenment about the Virginia Tech tragedy.
Kos gets a pass this week
Let's forgive his tin-eared post dismissing online misogyny because he just had a baby girl -- and nothing educates men about sexism quite like having a daughter.
Black rappers made him do it!
