Hold us accountable!

Including me, on this blog. Comment if you agree, disagree or just don't care. The marketplace of ideas is just that, a marketplace. As consumers of all the information, soundbites, sales pitches, statistics, punditry, blog posts, etc., that we are assailed with on a daily basis we need to take some time out, use our minds and discriminate.

As the recent Jon Stewart-Jim Cramer feud shows, just because someone has funny writers and someone else screams loudly on their show doesn't mean either one of them is right. This Op-Ed is only one page and Nicholas Kristof makes a valid point. Or does he?
