fisking: n. [blogosphere; very common] A point-by-point refutation of a
blog entry or (especially) news story. A really
stylish fisking is witty, logical, sarcastic and ruthlessly factual;
flaming or handwaving is considered poor form. Named after Robert Fisk, a
British journalist who was a frequent (and deserving) early target of such
treatment. See also MiSTing,
anti-idiotarianism
