Dorkmeisters in the “real” media

After Glenn Beck tweeted this …

2013_11 07 Beck tweet about Falwell

… mockery about Beck seeing zombies hit the twitter-verse from Left-olisters at TIME magazine, the New York Times, the New Yorker, New York magazine, Huffington Post, Rolling Stone magazine, Business Insider and Buzzfeed.

  • A woman who has won both an AP award and an Emmy for journalism retweeted Beck saying, “I laughed out loud.”
  • The Senior Political Columnist for Gannett New Jersey newspapers retweeted Beck saying, “He died years ago.”
  • Somebody at the Daily Intelligencer helpfully included a link to Jerry Falwell’s obituary with this snarky tweet: “Zombie Jerry Falwell Is Roaming the Streets of Asheville.”

What none of these quote unquote journalists did was google the name Jerry Falwell … you know … to see if there was some OTHER guy named Jerry Falwell. Like Jerry Senior’s son, Jerry Junior, who is Chancellor of Liberty University, and who recently lost a lot of weight. Duh.

Michelle Malkin pointed out their arrogant ignorance and tweeted:

A lot of you smug lib journos owe @glennbeck a 75lb apology. Oh, and stop deleting your tweets already. @TwitchyTeam

An associate editor at New York magazine and a political reporter at Business Insider both tweeted back to Michelle:

#NoApologies.

I guess they takes their cues from that unapologetic, lazy, lying Leftie in the White House.
