…of ThinkProgress is, basically, unbelievably dishonest. He writes the following: “Podhoretz… suggested that [Jill] Carroll was suffering from a mental disorder.” I never suggested any such thing. I said, correctly, that people would might think she was suffering from Stockholm Syndrome — which is not a mental disorder in any case, but a form of post-traumatic stress. Unless Legum has dyslexia, he is perfectly aware that he overreacted to what I wrote initially and just isn’t man enough to own up to it. He also says I said he should apologize for what he wrote, which is also incredibly dishonest. I specifically made it clear I was parodying his own calls for apologies from writers he clearly despises. What could possibly be the use of such an apology?
