This article presents information on various journalists' publication columns. "Wall Street Journal" editorial writer John Fund has landed on page six in a bizarre tale that is almost too weird to write down. It seems that a woman with whom Fund had an affair twenty years ago named Melinda Pillsbury Foster sent her daughter, to look up Fund when she came to town. "Weekly Standard," writer David Frum took a job as a supposedly anonymous White House speech-writer. But his wife, novelist Danielle Crittenden could not bear to see hubby's genius go unrecognized and sent out a mass e-mail claiming his authorship for George W. Bush's nonsensical "axis of evil."
