PING!
By the way -- Hi Washington Post and Matthew Mosk! Since you're lurking, we'd really like to know how you got your hands on NCPAC's e-mails, and what they actually say, instead of excerpts that may or may not be taken out of context. We know you've mischaracterized NCPAC's posts here - he didn't start any rumors, only commented on rumors posted by somebody else.
That doesn't excuse NCPAC's bad judgment, for which he has already resigned. But your newspaper seems to be making a mountain out of a molehill. Why?

I was surprised to learn how much attention Washington Post pays to this Web site. I too would like to know how they got hold of the e-mails. I guess this Web site is more influetial that many thought.

Well put.
In answer to the question of why the WaPost is over-hyping this in the extreme:
(1) desire to damage the Republican Governor of MD and hurt his re-election chances
(2) general media hostility to the web because of its smashing of the media monopoly (of course, failing to mention that the rumor was largely debunked on the truth engine that is FR) and
(3) specific animus towards FR because of its conservatism, numerous disputes with the Post, and, especially, because the FR truth engine was so effective in smashing the lies of Dan Rather and his forgeries
