Good Night, Mr. Kessler

Over at the Juice, John Cole puts Washington Post "fact checker" Glenn Kessler to bed:

So earlier today, I took to twitter to taunt Glenn Kessler for his idiotic assertion that the SEC documents are somehow less relevant because a former Democratic SEC member discussed them, and this is what happened:



Got it? He attacked the GOP earlier, so when he puts the finger on the scale to ignore the SEC documents, it’s just an example of him being “nonpartisan.” When numerous people pointed out to our brave fact checker that the source of a fact doesn’t change whether something is factual or not, our super genius doubled down:



Game over, Glenn.  Have a nice nap.  You're busted.

Facts no longer matter to the Washington Post Fact Checker.  Sources do...even if the sources aren't telling the truth, the truth doesn't matter.  If there was ever an example of someone completely captured by the Village, and so in love with their role as self-appointed referee of the partisan spin that they finally break down and admit the only opinion in America that matters is their own, it's Glenn Kessler.

Literally everything wrong with the media in 2012, right there.
