In Weigel’s article, he says, “Nick Baumann talked to Bryce Tierney, a friend of Loughner, and he’s able to explain the importance of Loughner’s obsession with the meaning of words.”, then he pastes in a quote from Baumann, but does not provide a link. Could that be because he’d have to link to Mother Jones, and that might upset his readers, or he doesn’t want to be caught basing his position on information from such a source?

Nicely spotted. Kind of stumbled over that but failed to register enough to take expressive note. I think you are right, Weigel is afraid of Mother Jones’ cooties.
