COMMENT OF THE DAY: “The New Black Panther Party plays the same role for the right that basically everyone that Dave Weigel covered when at the Post played for the left.”

Plus, a dash of common sense: “For most people the story is about whether the DOJ has a race based policy not about the NBP. Weigel is trying to make the story about Fox instead of the DOJ.”

Must be the new JournoList narrative. But the big news is that the story is now big enough that they have to try to explain it away, or change the subject, instead of just ignoring it. That means we’ve reached Phase Two.
