Another Smear Attack at Reason Online

At Reason Online (a name that has become increasingly inappropriate during the past few years), Dave Weigel (who fell for the “whitey tape” hoax, then furiously backpedaled) bashes Hot Air and attempts another smear on LGF; he insinuates I was crazy to doubt Markos Moulitsas, and ignores the updates that make it clear I accept the Obama birth certificate as real: Reason Magazine - Hit & Run - But It Doesn’t Say Whether He Was Born in a Manger!*

Note this section of Weigel’s post, on the Daily Kos antisemitic diary post I cited:

…(cue nutball Kos commenter’s diary about Israel)…

Weigel uses commenters to bash Hot Air and LGF, but then turns right around and excuses the sheer insanity posted in a Daily Kos diary by discounting it as a “comment” — which it is not.

UPDATE at 6/12/08 12:45:11 pm:

And if you want to read some really classy comments, have a look at what’s being posted now at Reason Online.
