I think this is the end of the intertubes as an informative mechanism

Posted by TFG on June 18th, 2008

Reason Magazine - Hit & Run > More Fun in Obamaconspiracyville: In Which Larry Sinclair Gets Arrested

It had been a difficult morning for Sinclair. The Politico’s Ben Smith published a short feature on Sinclair’s 27-year criminal record of fraud and petty crimes; Greta Van Susteren linked the story, and told viewers/readers why she has ignored him. “While the internet is a great communication and educational tool, it is also viral when it comes to smearing people,” she wrote, prompting commenters to call her a cover-up artist and an agent of Barack Obama. It got worse when Sinclair’s lawyer Montgomery Sibley—whose license is currently suspended in D.C. and Florida—showed up in a kilt and told reporters that his above-average endowment made slacks tight and uncomfortable. The Rev. James David Manning, who gained web celebrity in April for a YouTube’d sermon in which he called Obama a “long-legged mack daddy,” sat in the crowd of 50 or so with his family. He didn’t take questions.

There’s no reason on earth for anyone to give a penny-farthing about one single molecule of that.

    Well, there is a certain (however minor) entertainment value. And they’re real adept at smearing people, themselves.
