bombshell  
Dan Froomkin, one of my favorite journalists out there, is being fired by the Washington Post. For, uh, no discernible reason, I guess.

I'm writing the ombudsman because, frankly, I think this is a terrible choice. We need more journalists doing followups and staying on top of the issues, and keeping track of the people in power.

Oh, I was aware, just saving it for its own post (and was hoping to get more info.)

Yeah, it really sucks. I am complaining for similar reasons.
