DEAR FRENCH PEOPLE:

I would have a bit more sympathy for your complaints about Dominique Strauss-Kahn's perp walk if your nation's best-known newspaper hadn't acting in violation of our sense of propriety by publishing the accuser's name.

And yes, I realize that one of our own newspapers, the New York Post, vilely exposed the accuser's HIV status. I'll just say that the sleazy Post doesn't represent American values and never has.*

*In the Murdoch era, I mean.

****

UPDATE: The accuser's lawyer has denied the Post's HIV story.
