Weigel Accuses Examiner Politics of Being 'Snooze-worthy'
In a post on Slate this morning, Dave Weigel goes after the Washington Examiner for its “horse race” political columns. He says they’re getting “snooze-worthy.” Weigel wrote, “I’m not even sure that Michael Barone woke up before writing this one about ‘the Democratic party shrinking back to its bicoastal base.’ ” In his piece, Michael Barone says Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) didn’t attend an Obama rally in Wisconsin. But actually, he was there (it was a previous rally that Feingold had apparently skipped, Weigel notes).
In his first sentence, Weigel claims he has no deep-seated hatred toward the paper and is actually “a fan” despite the gossip item written about him earlier this year that involved him dancing solo at a friend’s wedding.
