A critic once wrote:
“The thing that always strikes me when I read a Maureen Dowd column isn't necessarily that her opinions are bad -- which they are -- but that she's extremely bad at writing op-eds. They read like stream-of-consciousness summaries of stale news with a tiny dose of opinion injected in. They're not persuasive essays that stick to a coherent thesis.”
