Washington Post's Hit Job on America's Second 9/11 -- The Massacre of the Bangs -- Repels Voters... Against the Washington Post

Fail.

Quoting from Langer Research (link inside the other link):

ost Americans, in any case, see the general approach as inappropriate: Seventy-five percent in this poll...say it’s unfair to bring up things a political candidate did in high school. Given the context of the bullying story, 89 percent of Republicans say so; that slips to 73 percent of independents and 66 percent of Democrats. Further, 72 percent think the specific bullying incident, first reported by The Washington Post, does not provide useful information about Romney’s character. That, too, engenders partisan divisions: Almost all Republicans (94 percent) think the incident isn’t relevant; 71 percent of independents and 59 percent of Democrats agree.

Guy Benson adds:

Incidentally, this data is mined from the same national survey that gave Democrats a ludicrous ten point sample advantage, resulting in The One's thin lead over Romney. So the public's rejection of the Post's advocacy journalism is probably even more comprehensive than even the 90 percent (!) figure indicates.

Obama ate a dog.

At least one dog. Probably more.

No one's ever asked.
