Steve Lovelady, who happens to be the Managing Editor of the Columbia Journalism Review, has posted his renewed apologetic concerning the professional demise of Eason Jordan here.

For some odd reason, Lovelady's comments seem to be the only entry on CJR Daily which does not permit folks to post comments about it. Also, he neglects to mention is "slavering morons" and "lynch mob" which he has confirmed is an accurate quote, in his latest post. (If anyone can solve the post-to-Lovelady's-post problem, please let me know.

The short of it is this: No one should make such a comment about any group, especially without bothering to research the backgrounds and bona fides of those involved. This is twice-times true when this slander (libel, if is published) when done by someone who purports to be a journalist. (Lovelady told me that he formerly worked for Time magazine.) This is three-times true when it is done by a leading official of the voice of the oracle of the MSM, the CJR.

He still owes us an apology. He still has no clue why Jordan had it coming. He still has no real clue about the nature of what we members of the "Pajama Patrol" do, and how seriously we take our task.
