Press Corps Lays Down on Memo

WaPo's Dan Froomkin reports on the White House Press Corps' handling of the memo story that's causing so many waves in Britannia. The WH press is treating it like the case for WMD—in other words they're not on it at all. The claims are serious: the British classified document reportedly contains evidence the President suggested bombing a civilian target in an allied country. How many questions does it merit? One. Froomkin points out the media's obsession du jour is the President's jury duty. Shame there's no room left for real news.
