"I Hope That's All You End Up Hanging." 
Jeff Jarvis excoriates a low, low moment in the New York Times...with a nice turn of phrase at the end.

Ms. Boxer, don't you think you could be putting the life of that person at risk with that kind of speculation? In your own story, you quote Ali -- one of the three blogging brothers who started IraqTheModel -- saying that "here some people would kill you for just writing to an American." And yet you go so much farther -- blithely, glibly speculating about this same man working for the CIA or the DoD -- to sex up your lead and get your story atop the front of the Arts section (I'm in the biz, Boxer, I know how the game is played).

How dare you? Have you no sense of responsibility? Have you no shame?

It's not as if you have the slightest -- not the slightest -- bit of responsible reporting that would guide you to put that speculation in your lead (and, of course, whenever a reporter launches that speculation high up and never really answers it, she's trying to lead the reader toward the same speculation -- that, too, is a trick of the trade, eh, Boxer?). All you have is the rantings of one known internet troll whose spittle-specked babblings have been dismissed in saner quarters. But you hang your lead on that. I hope that is all you end up hanging.

This whole situation is garbage. Not only have the brothers in question posted their full names on their website, but JARVIS HIMSELF has done it.

Hi,
I found reading your blog interesting and well done, I do like what you have done with your site but it is not really the information I was after about financial freedom . Keep up the good work and hopefully I will visit again sometime and also find the information on financial freedom that I was looking for in my travels.
