My html skills are not such that I can insert Shakespeare's Sister's bannerhead. But I am extremely disappointed that Edwards did not do more to keep SS and Amanda Marcotte on board. Instead, he made them apologize, and said nothing about Donohue and his ilk. Why weren't they vetted in advance of their hiring?
The Minstrel Boy has a good post on this topic.
I was ripping and listening to Taking the Long Way this morning, and began thinking about the similarities between both groups of women. The Chicks stood up to as bad insults and threats as SS and Amanda received, but the latter two caved. I'm not blaming them - presumably the famous and wealthy Chicks had more resources to back them up, and each other. But I am so glad they persevered and created that wonderful album (which just won Album of the Year Grammy, the Grammys being something I seldom pay any attention to). I'm sorry the other two didn't. And I'm very disappointed in Edwards.
