Taking on Krugman IS a smart thing for a pundit! (none / 0) (#5)

I agree with everything you said regarding Paul Krugman.

But what is the downside for Marcus?  Will she correct herself?  Is the Washington Post going to correct her?  Will their ombudsman examine this?  Will the WAPO fire her?  Will she not be invited to any TV talk shows?

What is the upside?  Can you imagine that anyone with a kill SSI agenda WILL reference her?  Interview her?  Invite her on their air?

I'm afraid she made the smart move this morning.

Krugman could challenge her to a duel.

Sadly, while our civility seems to have increased since then and duels are no longer acceptable, the press seems to have become less responsible.
