Picking on Mollie some more


As I've noted before, Mollie Hemingway- the scourge of the dishonest and inaccurate liberal media- has gone on and on for the past year about how the Lafayette Square demonstration that was broken up a year ago so that our crazy former president could pose in front of an Episcopal church awkwardly holding an unfamiliar book- the Bible- wasn't really peaceful (there were minor and isolated incidents of violence) and was not, in fact, dispersed by the use of tear gas. She has seemed quite certain about that and has ruthlessly savaged said liberal media for continuing to say otherwise.

The problem is that the DC police have now admitted in open court that tear gas was, in fact, used. Violence by that particular crowd on that particular day was not listed as a justification.

 I am certain that Mollie, senior editor of the once-respectable conservative publication known as The Federalist that has long since degenerated into the status of extremist crackpot publication, will once again display her passion for journalistic accuracy by publicly retracting her claim.
