Washington Post Is Nervous about Impending Removal of Judges
    The Washington Post is getting nervous because Article 8 is doing so well. Therefore, they flew a reporter and a photographer up last week in an attempt to damage it and Rep. Emile Goguen. But the Post story was so silly that their motives quickly became obvious.
    It was an editorial masquerading as a news story. Its principal source was an anonymous "State House insider" who said: "It's not taken very seriously on Beacon Hill." The insider was apparently Mike Barnicle, who was quoted in its lead sentence. It said that Barnicle called it "moronic" last month. That's really important, up-to-date news!
    The Post also insulted Fitchburg, saying, "Drive the streets of this industrial city, a city with a lot of brick and boarded-up store fronts, a city just waiting for Richard Russo to write a novel about it, and the only signs of political life are some discontent about the prospect of widening Route 12."
    It made many wonder if the reporter has ever strolled the streets of Washington lately. He has a lot to do at home without worrying about Fitchburg. And these are the people who are informing us about what is happening across the nation and the world???
