"Also wrested out of context are recycled versions of Margolis's unwillingness to install Internet filters -- except for children -- on library computers. Free speech may be uncomfortable at times, but it should never be so in a library. It is the branch libraries, though, that are now center stage."

Wrested out of context

That phrase seems particularly appropriate for this post - even though, for a change, I think I know what you're getting at: That Tom Menino's narrow-minded, thin-skinned persona came to the surface and he finally got rid of the nationally recognized library director for no good reason, and that Menino's minions are now trying to Big-Lie the firing because Margolis actually fought for the branch libraries, despite everything you read by the parrotting stenographers in the mainstream media who regurgitate whatever Hizzona tells them without bothering to find the real story.
That about right?
PS: Ah, I see I am right, based on the lucid, cogent and brief note you left as a comment on that Phoenix story.
