Doug,

You have taught me so much -- via LBO and your radio show which I love to tune in via the net (I even once met you at the Socialist Scholars Conference in NY in the 80s. . .I believe on a panel w/ Kovel). . .but so as Cockburn taught me much. . .

that's all a way of saying that I respect you both. . . 

Anyway, AC once lauded LBO as a great alternative to the muck in the business press (something I believe you used to advantage in your PR). . .so my question is, how serious is your criticism of AC? and what are the most telling instances of shotgunnism deserving of rebuke? Have you guys had a falling out? 

Just curious. . .if you don't want to respond on the list, that's fine. . .
