1. Sequence: Tony Kornheiser debuts on Monday Night Football,
gets mixed reviews, including a
pan from his own newspaper. As I predicted, TK
throws a fit, as he tends to do when the WaPo criticizes him,
creating a newsstory of its own (also
NYT).
Gene Weingarten satirizes this;
lots of idiots don't get the joke. The irony is that Kornheiser's reaction was relatively muted compared to incidents in the last few years where he had critical reporters fired.

Weingarten also gets the story about jdate-r Darren, who turns out to be even more of a jerk than the Costanza-like scenario much blogged about.

I'm more environmental than Al Gore.
