I woke up today feeling masochistic, I guess, because I spent about 15 minutes having a look around the wingnut blogosphere to see what was shaking in the Land of Epistemic Closure. The Daily Caller has an article accusing Glenn Beck of using the work of numerous right wing loons (such ...

The Los Angeles Times has suspended columnist Michael Hiltzik’s Golden State blog: Golden State: Notice from the Editors. (Here’s why.) Note: they haven’t suspended Hiltzik himself. Just his blog.
Patterico has caught LA Times columnist Michael Hiltzik using “sock puppet” identities on blogs, posting under at least two different pseudonyms to attack his detractors and defend the LA Times: Three in One: Michael Hiltzik, Mikekoshi, and Nofanofcablecos. As long-time LGF readers know, if I find people doing that here it’s ...
