Dear Christie;
Your painfully biased "stories" make my heart hurt and my eyes bleed. Everytime I read one, I feel as if a small band of intelligent monkeys is punching me resolutely in the back the head. But, you do entertain. Seeing you lampoon not only defendants in court trials, but also your (and my) own profession has a painful yet comedic quality to it, akin to my idea that there should be a television show where celebrities have rabid giraffes set on them just for kicks. The point would be, stop kicking my chosen profession in the teeth.
But you also have good qualities, namely that you are getting up in years, and hopefully we will be able to blame your bias on senility. Remember, it's not discriminatory or hurtful if you're too old to know what you're saying! Also, you seem to be able to write anything (read:fictional dramatizations) without actually getting sued, while much better journalists are getting sued and/or jailed for saying or protecting the truth.
Truth is, Christie, you are a prototypical columnist. I say this not in praise, but in hopes that maybe if you are a prototype, there might only be one of you, and perhaps we can all be a little (read: a lot) better.
With love,
Concerned citizens
