Jim Goad regarding JournoList

For those of you who don't know who Jim Goad is, he's a bit of an underground celebrity. (Translation: 'Political Correctness' is something he heard about once, then wiped his butt with and ignored from that moment on.) His writing is harsh, brutal, vividly descriptive, and leaves no sacred cow undefiled. He offends everyone. As in every single person on Earth and probably still-undiscovered civilizations somewhere in the Andromeda Galaxy. If he hasn't offended you yet, wait for it.

But writing with a total "I don't give a %&*#" attitude is the best way to get to the heart of the matter. Observe Mr. Goad's analytical stylings here:

I’m aware that one would have to hear voices, wear a tinfoil hat, drink moonshine, live in a trailer, and have been bad-touched by aliens at least once in their life to so much as suggest a leftist bias exists in mainstream American journalism.

Warning: Harsh Language. But well worth the read. Seriously, does this paragraph not get right to the point?

Part of the reason I ceased identifying as a leftist about twenty years ago is because it became impossible to ignore the unapologetically infantile tantrum-throwing and witch-hunting bloodlust that always seemed to lurk beneath leftism’s fake-ass shield of compassionate humanism. That, and the fact that most of its spokespeeps were affluent Caucasians who for some reason fancied themselves as champions of “the people” despite the fact that the middle-class, working-class, and lumpenproletarian whites who actually constitute the statistical bulk of “the people” are the incessant targets of their elitist scorn and derision.

I understand perfectly, Mr. Goad. It just took me a little longer to figure it out.
