fisking
|
|
|
|
n. [blogosphere; very common] A point-by-point refutation of a blog entry or
|
|
(especially) news story. A really stylish fisking is witty, logical,
|
|
sarcastic and ruthlessly factual; flaming or handwaving is considered poor
|
|
form. Named after Robert Fisk, a British journalist who was a frequent (and
|
|
deserving) early target of such treatment.
