Is it possible to be sympathetic to both @SethAbramson & @emptywheel? Seth says media has been lazy & negligent about the so-called dossier. Marcy, not lazy or negligent, has looked into the dossier closely & found much to be skeptical about. I trust her, but she's not @NYTimes.https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/944402716494827525 …

Fair enough. But please keep in mind that this shit can be overwhelming and complex even to people of good faith who have other jobs and are just trying to keep up. It's like a 900-page John LeCarre novel.

Well, maybe it's because it's what you do for a living (and I don't), or maybe you're just smarter than I am, but I do in fact find it hard to understand what the fuck is going on. I appreciate your analysis but I do get tired of your condescension.

Don’t take it hard, John. She lives in effing Grand Rapids, Mi, for chrissake. She can be brilliant but clearly not about everything.

I've been a fan since Marcy's work explaining the Scooter Libby stuff during the heyday of the late lamented FireDogLake site. Plus, we like the same kind of beer. There are areas of disagreement. She's a football fan while I find myself increasingly unable to watch it.

Actually so am I. Too many young men having career threatening injuries in their first pro game.
