Humanitarian of the Year

Bill Keller. Hands down. Since the introduction of TimeSelect, I have not heard so much as a hint of a whisper of a word that Klugman has written. In fact, the only thing I've garnered about the NYT op-ed page is the vague impression that its other columnist -- Dowdy or some such -- was somewhat less than charitable toward Judy Miller. It's a better world. The sky is a deeper blue, the changing leaves a more firey mix. Perhaps someday Keller will allow his two disgruntled columnists to once again roam free range. Until then, he will remain my hero. What? There was another one? Reich? The hell you say.
