In a post today, Politico media writer has a story headlined “Who needs facts? Drudge Report edition.”
But funny enough, Byers mistakenly writes that Tim Cavanaugh, formerly executive director of The Daily Caller who now works for National Review, works for The Weekly Standard.
In any other piece, a f**kup like this would be just fine, or at least passable. But this one?

But hey, if anyone can laugh at himself, it’s Dylan Byers. “Correction: Cavanaugh writes for National Review, not The Weekly Standard, as this post initially stated. But hey, who needs facts?”
