Ebert on Mariotti: You dirty rat

Some of you are familiar with Jay Mariotti. More of you recognize Roger Ebert. Both from the Chicago Sun-Times - Mariotti the acerbic sports columnist, Ebert the Pulitzer Prize winning film critic. Mariotti resigned this week, declaring his newspaper (and others) "dead." Ebert responded today, declaring Mariotti "a rat." Must reading for anyone who believes passionately in the future of the newspapers.
