Randy Richmond (bicycling correspondent of The London Free Press) doesn't like the cut of my jib:

Hey Mark
Randy Richmond of The London Free Press here.
Have emailed your mailbox twice to suggest you email me directly or give me a call to discuss coverage of Canadian Human Rights Commission.
You seem to be afraid to confront someone directly after questioning their journalistic abilities.
Is this what your career has become?
I expect more from you.
Waiting for your reply.

1) We have no record of any emails prior to this one. So please re-send.

2) I'm not "afraid to confront someone directly" if you're proposing hand-to-hand combat on an abandoned bit of scrub after dark. However, if you're proposing to interview me for an hour, use a 25-word quote, and then fill up the rest of the piece with reactions from Catsmeat, Bernie, your bicycle boy Warmfront, Head Sock Khurrum Awan, ovine fornication specialist Professor John Miller, etc, perhaps you could explain what's in it for me.

3) I don't think there's really any question about your "journalistic ability", is there?

4) "Is this what your career has become?" Ah, well. I didn't get the professional advice you did.

[UPDATE: Editor-in-Chief seizes opportunity for self-congratulation]
