“His [Hartigan's] observations about the juvenile and superficial conduct of some bloggers was borne out in the real-time twitter coverage of his speech by Crikey’s Bernard Keane, a grown man who, to borrow from Tim Blair, writes with all the giggly, exclamation-laden excitement of a teenage girl in her email account of schoolies week.”

“To borrow from Tim Blair”

Fancy that folks! Borrowing from one of News Ltd’s own “obsessives and ideologues who come at every issue from a fixed position”.

Tim, the typo and apostrophe obsessive whose incisive analysis owes much to the ‘Laugh In’ one liner school of commentary.
