(no subject)

You know what makes you sound like a blockhead?

1. Admitting you have no idea about x subject (or knowledge gleaned from unreliable sources; e.g., an organization that dislikes x), then writing a piece about it.

1.a) Then proceeding to BASH SUBJECT X. Which you said you don't know anything about. Why on earth would you not do a little bit of research? Fine, a minor detail--not everyone wants to improve their writing, etc, etc. But when it's practically the whole basis for your story? And you're bashing it? Really.
