FLOOD THE ZONE! KAUS AND SULLIVAN are all over the New York Times story.

I’ll just note that in the aftermath of The Agonist’s plagiarism scandal, people wondered if this was a blow to the credibility of the Blogosphere, since it doesn’t, you know, have editors like Howell Raines. Time to catch The Agonist: a couple of weeks. Time to catch Jayson Blair — over a year after the Metro editor wrote a memo saying that he needed to be stopped “right now.”

UPDATE: Josh Marshall‘s your Blair-scandal-free zone, at least at the moment. He’s busy flooding the zone on the Katrina Leung story, which provides still more evidence that the FBI isn’t up to its job.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Bill Quick is enjoying the show.
