ON THE WAYS & MEANS OF LLOYD GROVE
Is There No End to This Wretched Gossip's Depravity?

Michelangelo Signorile has a must read column in the latest New York Press, "Slams & Smears: Why Grove Put Brock on the Block," (also published at Signorile.com) on the oh-so-low ways and means of Washington Post gossip columnist (He hates it when you call him that!) Lloyd Grove.

Truly there is no depth the bottom-feeding Grove will not explore in his effort to curry favor with the powers that be.

Signorile's case project with respect to Grove: David Brock, a man whose astounding book, Blinded by the Right, ought to be on your bookshelf -- and in two forms: hardcover and the new paperback edition -- and shared with friends and family, a book the right continues to excoriate but refuses to tackle head-on. [Ed.: Full disclosure: Signorile is a friend and Brock was an acquaintance of mine while I lived in Washington, though I doubt he remembers me now.]

Oh, and if you haven't heard already, Signorile has a new syndicated radio program. Imagine that! A liberal, a genuine liberal, invading the eighth circle of Dante's Inferno! Click here for more details.
