What would Mickey do?

Kevin Drum at CalPundit wonders out loud how long it will be before pundit blogger Andrew Sullivan turns on new NYT editor Bill Keller. I have been wondering the same thing about our local more-Right-than-he-likes-to-admit blogging star Mickey Kaus, whose obsession with Howell Raines -- and to a slightly lesser degree, anything anti-NYT -- is still on display today. [Ed.: Not unlike your strange fixation with KPFK...] Meanwhile, the Los Angeles piece about Kaus by media columnist R. J. Smith should begin arriving in mail boxes this week, but if past practice holds it won't be put online by the magazine for about ten days. No, I haven't seen it, even though I also have a piece on city politics in the August issue.
