Or, behold the latest example of the right-wing's skewed view of journalism.
From Politico, in an article about David Weigel's resignation from the WashPost, where he wrote about the conservative movement [emphasis added]:
Starting last month, Dan Gainor, vice president for business and culture at the Media Research Center, the conservative media watchdog group, went on something of a crusade.
Angered by a joke that David Weigel made about Matt Drudge on his Twitter feed, Gainor contacted conservative groups asking them to stop cooperating with Weigel, who had recently taken his blog about the conservative movement to the Washington Post.
"We encouraged conservatives not to deal with him," he said. "We contacted other conservative organizations and said, 'This guy is no friend of the conservative movement. We recommend that you deny him access.' Some did."
Got that? A right-wing group that ostensibly monitors the media, contacted like-minded, right-wing organizations and urged them not to cooperate with a WashPost reporter because the reporter was, supposedly, not a “friend” of the conservative movement.
Sarah Palin would be proud.
