Editorial Chairs
Posted by Jon Henke

Why do they even bother getting "experts" to write for the NYTimes editorial pages, if this is the result:

- Thomas Friedman, an expert on foreign affairs, writes about NAFTA and its domestic and social impact.

So, with that topic taken....

- Bob Herbert, an expert on "social trends", writes a column on the current economic situation.

So, with that topic taken....

- Paul Krugman, an expert in economics, writes a column about some stupid pop culture reference.

So, with that topic taken....

- Maureen Dowd, an expert at stupid pop culture references, writes a column about foreign affairs.

As James Taranto likes to say...."what would we do without experts"?
