Mickey: You Can Have Mine
Mickey Kaus isn’t getting enough hate mail.
Hate Me, Please! My hate e-mail has all but disappeared, which is vaguely disconcerting. For the past two years (ever since the Florida recount) I’ve gotten at least two, sometimes 200, abusive missives a day — until about three months ago, when the stream of vitriol seemed to dry up. Other bloggers still complain to me that they’re oppressed by offensive correspondence. I join in the griping, not daring to tell them the truth. … Does the link at the bottom of the page not work anymore? (No, it does.) Is nobody reading kf? (No, the stats look healthy.) Has the Web suddenly become more civil? Were all the nasty e-mails orchestrated by obscure talk shows and sites like Media Whores Online — so that if you’re not on their radar, you don’t get flamed? I’m at a loss.
I can explain it, Mickey. It’s all being forwarded to me.
