'Time' Publishes Feingold Letter Hitting Klein
Accused by bloggers and other critics of refusing to publish letters complaining about the recent error-riddled Joe Klein column on FISA, Time magazine, in its Dec. 17 issue coming out tomorrow (received by yours truly today), finally carries a longish complaint from Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wisc.). It comes at the end of the Letters section, after two other letters hitting Klein on the same issue. Feingold notes that Klein called Democrats "tone deaf" and "well beyond stupid," yet the columnist "got most of the facts wrong about the debate" over FISA. Later he declares Klein "flat-out wrong" on another aspect.

That's all well and good, and better than nothing, but the letter is buried so far down in the website that you have to know it's there before you can find it. Try finding what they call the "Inbox" from the home page. You have to first to to the Table of Contents. Then it's on the second page of "Inbox." A minimum of four clicks, IF you know what you are looking for.
In a final indignity, they helpfully provide a link to the original, offending piece at the very top of the "Inbox" where they feature 9 letters on other subjects before they get to the Klein atrocity.
