They're bashing Tennessee, along with Harold Ford Jr., in the comment section of this blog post in the New York Times. WTF? What did we do to deserve this? Ford's a hick like all Tennesseans, the commenters say, and a vapid blowhard like that other famous Tennessean, Fred Thompson. A sampling of the ridicule follows, then finally a post in defense of our fair state. Hey New York, ever hear of Adolph Ochs?
