This is Barrett Brown; I believe we spoke briefly a few months back. As a refresher, I write for Vanity Fair, Huffington Post, Skeptic, True/Slant, and a few other outlets here and there.

My second book, Hot, Fat, and Clouded: The Amazing and Amusing Failures of America's Chattering Class, is set for release this upcoming April. The book consists largely of attacks on Thomas Friedman, Charles Krauthammer, Richard Cohen, and other such wacky columnists, detailing all of their various failed predictions, contradictory assertions, and terrible prose tics. I figured that some of the content might be of interest to Gawker; would you care to have the first look at the manuscript? Let me know when you get a moment.

Thanks,

Barrett Brown
