Kos has a non-apology apology up today at his site. The other A-listers. Nothing so far, though I did receive one email response from one them that was very negative toward me.

It's important that we think through these issues affecting the blogosphere. This is why I've decided to support the boycott of the local blogger happy hours. The hosts, who claim to represent all DC area bloggers, frequently write homophobic, sexist, and somewhat racist posts. Furthermore, they published full names and phone numbers of bloggers they don't like this week and they visited the home of another blogger and committed a violent act. We must stand together on these things and lift the collective discussions to a higher level. Love you, T! Great post. It’s important that we think through these issues affecting the blogosphere.

Yes, we should criticize when warranted, but to call out the hounds for a full-on lynching seems a bit harsh when there are so many more important fish to fry. Once you take the professional jealousy out of it, what Markos said doesn't warrant national attention. This reads like a rehash of the “political correctness” wars of the late-1980′s.
