Dude. Seriously.

By Ned | February 22, 2008

Via Greg Sargent, the NYT reporters and editors who wrote that whole McCain mess up are taking questions. Cool. I’ve got a few questions for the editors.

1.) “Dude. What the hell?” Pause. “Dude.” And then just a long, disappointed gaze.

2.) So when were you guys planning publishing this story if The New Republic hadn’t lit that fire under your ass? January 20, 2013?

3.) If this story’s been brewing for three months, why does the final product look like something I might produce after an all-nighter when the dining hall’s run out of coffee?

4.) Seriously, dude. What the hell?

Also, I second all of Greg’s questions.
