Fisking

What is Fisking?


1.

The word is derived from articles written by Robert Fisk that were easily refuted, and refers to a point-by-point debunking of lies and/or idiocies.

Here we have a great example of a fisking of a clearly biased writer.

See bias, lies, refute

2.

Fisking is a written argument where one person sequentially addresses each point of an of another person's argument.

This is done in a precise manner relying on semantics and ambiguities to infer a defect in the original point. This approach is tantamount to taking a sentence out of context in order to refute an entire argument.

Fisking does not pay heed to the opponent's thesis as a whole, and thus does not disprove the thesis as a whole.

That bastard was Fisking my posts. So I had to create a hydra to Fisk him. I really fisted that Fisking fucker.

See fisk, neo-con, war, blog, post, flame
