Review of museum's gun exhibit draws fire

"Mary is an excellent art critic who writes with authority and passion. Unfortunately, this piece crossed the line that separates a review from a column of personal opinion."

I wrote in about this "review" when it was first published, and posted it here. Apparantly lots of other people did, too. The Star-Tribune has posted a selection of reader comments and a half-hearted apology from the managing editor (quoted above), along with some comments in defence of the review. While it's not a complete mea culpa, it's more than newspapers often bother to express.
