Exactly. If I’d already taken an interest in the article, I would have sighed and read on, but since it was the first sentence, I just stopped.
Besides, I read Laura Ingraham’s book and found it tiresome, not worthy of discussion articles.
I've never read any of her books but I did listen to her show on WABC Talk Radio. She became very tiresome during the last presidential campaign, so I stopped listening altogether.
If you had read further you’d have had more sighing to do. The last sentence in that same paragraph the author uses “site” where s/he clearly meant “cite”.
*sigh*
