Bloglossary: Kurtz
kurtz tr. v.
1. To provide cover for one's superiors or ideological fellow-travelers through deliberately selective reporting in such a way as to offer a defense against ignoring damaging and inconvenient facts while maintaining that said facts are of minor importance compared to the motivations or foibles of those calling attention to them.
2. To pretend to be a media critic while embedding one's proboscis as deeply up the backside of mainstream media bigwigs as would be possible without being biologically characterized as a symbiote.
