Here's some good news. Mike Barnicle, plagiarist, fantasist and good friend to Republican talking heads Pumpkinhead Russert, Chris Matthews and Don Imus, is being dumped by the Boston Herald. Barnicle is playing the story as if he's taking the ax to save the job of some less deserving -- but more truthful -- employee at the paper. It will soon be revealed that George Carlin made the same claim when his FOX sitcom was cancelled in the 90s.
