The WaPo Looks Really Bad Over Christine O’Donnell

WaPo, As a subscriber, one hopes that the correct people are held accountable for this debacle: http://patterico.com/2010/10/20/wapoap-caught-revising-the-o%E2%80%99donnell-story-without-issuing-a-correction/ Suggestion: man up, do the correct thing, and give Christine O’Donnell a proper interview, post-haste.

CNN Discovers Secret to Failure

Doug Ross summarizes the idiocy: Go figure: a hapless, failed politician with zero media experience and a pathetic drone of an op-ed writer have achieved the lowest Nielsen ratings for CNN in a decade.

Professor William Jacobson has accused you, Miss Maddow, of “sexualizing” Christine O’Donnell, which may elicit some unfortunate mental images, so let’s not go there, OK?
