Why do we here at the
Serious Poo-Poo Institute of Technology (S.P.I.T.) refer to the hometown newspaper by its full formal name,
The Washington Post and Shitty Corporate Mouthpiece? In part because
The Washington Post and Shitty Corporate Mouthpiece has recently hired this asshole as a columnist.
Say what you like about Bob Novak, who used to enjoy publicly identifying covert CIA operatives in the newspaper. But at least he came from a time when, generally, news columnists had to have an actual background in journalism. I like to think there was a time when a former presidential speech writer and would be laughed the hell out the delivery entrance, resume in hand, of any decent newspaper.
The Huffington Post has embedded the rest of the interview.
