BRET STEPHENS of the WSJ gets a kick in the shorts from Michelle Malkin:
Question: While Captain Ed and others were digging up past quotes from Eason Jordan and other CNN employees to give the Davos remarks context, what was Bret Stephens doing? Slapping together a CYA sandwich and a side order of snark.

Stephens and the Wall Street Journal editorial board have no business lecturing the blogosphere about reckless cheap shots. They are masters of the art form. Nevertheless, Stephens used his interview with Hewitt to complain about how he's "suffered" at the hands of the blogosphere. Oh, kerfuffle. No need to get emotional about it. We're all grown-ups , right?
