I've suspected as much for years, thanks for the confirmation.
And keep up the good work, Maestro.

Krauthammer has been wrong about every U.S. military engagement in the last
12 years, at the very least; I've written several pieces on him that provide
further instances of his failures in other matters as well. Thomas Friedman
has almost as bad a record, as I've explained in several other articles
which may be found online. As for a scorecard, I don't know of anything like
that, although one could begin composing such a thing by going through past
columns as I've done in several cases. And as for Project PM tackling this
matter, I originally started the group with that very intent before things
came up that convinced me to shift direction. Having said that, I'm still
dedicated to revealing these people for the mediocrities that they are and
my next book, after the completion of the Anonymous book to be released next
year, will include several chapters on specific failures of these very
pundits, and will hopefully help to direct attention to this problem.

Dear sir,
In my search for the basis of Krauthammer's vitriolic commentary, I came
across one of your critiques. Perhaps you could help me convince the Phila
Inquirer to drop this malicious bullshitter from their editorial page. What
I seek is a scorecard for pundits. How often do they get it right or wrong.
I suspect that Krauthammer is on the latter end of the spectrum and does
not deserve his place as an opinion leader.
Does such a scorecard exist?
and/or..
Could you add that to your Project PM agenda? It might make a splash in
the media.
Many thanks,
