So Much For Mickey

If you've been worried about the fates of Mickey Kaus & David Wiegel, you should get some help for your psychiatric problems.

After getting fired from the Washington Post following a coordinated smear campaign by the trashier elements of the right-wing media, libertarian journalist David Weigel has been hired by ... the Washington Post Company's Slate. Weigel will launch a politics blog. (Mickey Kaus, meanwhile, is still blogging at the website of his failed Senate campaign. Which is still soliciting donations.)
