Former Washington Post blogger David Weigel has landed at MSNBC, though that will probably not wind up being his only outlet. He is a good reporter who made a dumb mistake. Conservatives happy about his departure from the Post should think twice — it will only give cover to young reporters who would make the same kinds of comments but not cover the conservative movement as fairly or as well. But it’s mainly the spineless Post‘s loss. (In the interest of full disclosure, yes, Weigel is a personal friend.)
