Don't Mess With Shrek

Atrios reports that Gregg Easterbrook's Tuesday Morning Quarterback column has disappeared from ESPN.com, just days after Easterbrook bashed Michael Eisner of Disney. It's hard to choose who to root against in such a battle.

Meanwhile, environmentalists are dissing an Easterbrook op-ed defending Bush's environmental record.

It's a good thing that Easterbrook still has his gigs at Brookings, beliefnet, the Atlantic Monthly, Washington Monthly and TNR to fall back on.

Update (approx. 2 minutes later): Things happen fast. Atrios reports that ESPN has given Easterbrook the heave-ho.
