The Washington Post fires its best columnist. Why?

One of the rarest media commodities -- someone who criticizes Democrats "from the Left" -- just got rarer still.

    Sad...

    I read the headline of Mr. Greenwald's column and it didnt make much impact.

    Then I saw he was referring to Dan Froomkin. My heart sank.

    Why on earth would they get rid of him?

    The only upside is that I feel confident he will find a new home which will be more hospitable to him.
