So, as it turns out, republicans and media just really don’t mix.

Ok, we want that to be true, but really, it’s just that Ben Domenech lies about stuff. He has quit his radical “I’m not a journalist” career after four long days of calling Coretta Scott King a communist the press being mean to him, and Jossip calling him a douche.

In the past 24 hours, we learned of allegations that Ben Domenech plagiarized material that appeared under his byline in various publications prior to washingtonpost.com contracting with him to write a blog that launched Tuesday.

An investigation into these allegations was ongoing, and in the interim, Domenech has resigned, effective immediately.

When we hired Domenech, we were not aware of any allegations that he had plagiarized any of his past writings. In any cases where allegations such as these are made, we will continue to investigate those charges thoroughly in order to maintain our journalistic integrity.

Jim Brady goes on to explain that plagiarism is bad, and thanks the rest of the liberal bloggers, Internet media, etc… for bringing this to their attention.

We can’t wait til Monday when we find out Domenedouche sold his 50-page memoir for $5 million.
