James Wolcott: Michael Medved Is an Idiot

[Fenris]

Yes, I know what you're thinking: "Tell me something else I don't already know."

But some things can't be reiterated enough.

Such as: Michael Medved is an idiot. He has a wet sock for brain. A thumbless grasp of the issues and a propensity for lachrymose whimpering when he doesn't get his way.

To wit, today's riposte to his critics in the Wall Street Journal's Leisure and Arts page. He blinks like a mole with minor astonishment that the fuss over Clint Eastwood's Million Dollar Baby has "improbably and irrationally focused on...me." Medved being such a shy maiden and all. He also mopes in advance that this controversy may produce big wins for this "sad, undeserving film" at Hollywood's annual feast of the Antichrist, otherwise known as the Academy Awards.
