Financial Times

Dear Matthew:

I think I understand what you were trying to say in your response to my post last week about The Fiscal Times.

I just disagree with it.

You say that, because you write a blog for an organization that has a definite point of view and you understand it without being told what it is, those who will be posting on TFT's blog -- Capital Exchange -- must, no doubt about it, absolutely, positively, be in a similar position.  Therefore, TFT must reflect what Pete Peterson, who provided the initial funding for TFT, thinks and wants to happen.

Matthew, I get it: You don't like Pete Peterson, Peterson's politics, or Peterson's policies.
