Pearlstein
From Steven Pearlstein's Friday morning chat:
Munich, Germany: Blogger Glenn Greenwald has something to tell you. Mr. Pearlstein, would you like to publish your recent comments on Paulson's bail-out policy one right after the other, without omitting one --- allowing the reader to be amazed about all your blatant contradictions?

Will you have the guts to face the Greenwald challenge?

Steven Pearlstein: This is pretty indicative of the bloggers view of the world. They write about what other people write about. And the mainstream media writes about what's going on in the world.

If you or anyone else wants to compare and contrast and come up with some conclusion about the consistency of my columns, go right ahead. And if you decide I'm not someone you want to read, then don't read it. It's a free country and, at this point, the content is free as well. As for me, I'm focused on my readers and the economic crisis before us, not getting sucked into the shouting match of the blogosphere.
