Mohamed sent me this: "If you haven't seen this already, it's quite amusing. "Fairness and Accuracy in
Reporting" did a report on Thomas Friedman in 2006. They found that in talking
about the war on Iraq, he claimed that we will see results "in the next six
months." Funny thing is, he used this phrase fourteen time over a two and a half
year period. Because of his complete incompetence as a journalist and foreign
policy analyst, there is now even a term (which has it's own wikipedia page)
called a "Friedman Unit"; it refers "to any event or 'critical period' which is
repeatedly expected to happen in the near future, but repeatedly fails to
occur.""
