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
