KCRW's Anti-Semitic Dust-Up

A reader wrote in to tell us that Warren Olney invited Amiri Baraka to speak on To The Point today about the whole Jesse Jackson/Barack Obama “balls brawl.”

Olney never mentions that Baraka is a controversial figure regarded by many to be an anti-Semite — an oversight that irks our reader. The reader, of course, blogged about it, and wrote Olney an e-mail, which prompted this response:
