    I did notice when Kurtz stopped being introduced as from the Daily Beast, instead as part of "our Daily Download team" for his Newshour segments.

      Separated at birth: Howard Kurtz and Tom Friedman. Dopey? Check. Self-satisfied? Check. Happy to give credibility to those who flatter him? Check. Blissfully unaware of own biases? Check.

        I have always been fascinated with Howie's neckties, from their Barney Miller-esque designs down to the Catholic school kid-level knots. Shame we can't see this one in its full glory.

          The photo annotation feature needs to have a smaller selection box if it's ever going to live up to its full promise as a pimple annotator.

            Howie Kurtz's egregiousness is far more extensive, and multi-faceted, than this Gawker column suggests. r

              It's painful to read tweets from someone lying through their teeth (fingernails?) about getting canned. Suuuure, you wanted to move in a different direction, this had been coming for awhile, it had nothing to do with the inaccurate hack piece that immediately preceded your departure.

                Now if we could just get to the point where Megan McArdle has no place to write, that would represent progress.
