The Solomon Issue

Since I am old I remember that for years John Solomon was a very respected journalist. Silly bloggers and Media Matters would criticize him only to be dismissed as cranks by his "colleagues" (lefty critics are always dismissed as cranks).

Specifically, Solomon:

From May 1987 to December 2006, Solomon worked at the Associated Press, where he became the assistant bureau chief in Washington, helping to develop some of the organization's first digital products, such as its online elections offering.

In 2007, he served as The Washington Post's national investigative correspondent.
