Standards

by digby

This piece of tabloid trivia from a supposedly responsible news person isn’t really worth commenting on except to say that we should probably expect to get more of these little tid bits. It’s the kind of kewl kid gossip they furiously blackberry to each other all day long.

But I have to say that the Washington Post blog comment sections are revolting. And that’s pretty surprising considering how they went completely around the bend when liberals dared to criticize … the paper itself. Apparently, it’s just fine to make stomach churning racist comments on their site, but call a reporter on the carpet and it’s time to shut them down. It’s an unusual standard. I would suggest an emergency blogger ethics panel immediately.
