O'Reilly's an M
On the way home the car radio was playing me Terry Gross's Fresh Air interview with Bill O'Reilly. O'Reilly managed to turn a fairly engaging interview into a yelling match by turning astonishingly defensive in response to the slightest barb, instead of just answering amiably. NPR ain't exactly the BBC, and she would have mostly let him slide. Guess he's a type M.

C and M
An introduction to Type C and Type M arguments. A must-read despite using Paul Krugman, whom this space enjoys, as a punching bag.
