Nats Fans Send Former Moonie Scribe To Summer Camp Spring Training
And you thought Wyclef was a fund-raising mastermind. Former Washington Times beat reporter turned blogger Mark Zuckerman recently asked his readers to cough up funds to send him to Nats’ spring training. In a week, Zuckerman successfully raised more than double the $5K, which is either a wonderful commentary on the public’s thirst for quality journalism or a sign of dangerously misplaced priorities. I’m personally opting for the former, particularly as I will soon be asking CSTB readers to deep dig to send me to one of two special events on the upcoming calendar.
What, already paid for your Dave Matthews Band tickets at Citi Field in July?
I think Chico Harlan used Amazon donations to get the WaPo to transfer him from the Nats to the Toyko desk.
