In my experience, most "Editor's notes" serve only to placate the dull-witted and the politically correct (often the first to fire off emails) as is the case here. The title is fine without "explanation". And, if you have to impose an "editor's note" on the reader put it at the bottom of the piece, not the top.

While we are at it, I changed the "Ku Klux Coulter" link to the specific column referenced as opposed to the URL where Raimondo posts his newest column. I also changed the Houston Review to the Texas Mercury in Wong's ID as it seems that publication has gone through a name change.

I wanted to placate the dull-witted. Way too many people who respond without reading first. I wanted to make sure I didn't get the same damned email over and over again on how mean I was for running the piece.

So this is how you bring the Ann Coulter story by Justin back you change links so we can all get to that garbage, and inside this garbage. Too slick.
