Daly/Bacon: Day Two

It’s amazing the amount of buzz and commentary Chris Daly’s post on Perry Bacon has sparked (earlier).

Some updates: Chris Daly provides an update and “clarifies” many of his original points (read: re-states them in a much more polite tone that he should have employed in the first place).

Jack Shafer calls Daly’s post a “lame complaint” and offers this gem:

Ripping Daly is a bit like shooting fish in a barrel. But what’s wrong with shooting fish in a barrel? If a professor is stupid enough to gurgle like this about young reporters while splashing around in the tight confines of a tub, he deserves double-barrel treatment.
