Fuego/Frio: Erik Wemple Talks!
In which Erik chastises the Dupont Current for its misleading real estate section and rewards the InTowner for—get this—their snappy headlines!
Quote of the week: "That's as succinct as they've been in ten years!" Scary part is, that's probably true.
Meanwhile, the good folks at Reason front a totally unreasonable headline. Erik's flip-out, and Riggs' response, below the jump.

Here's a quickie, and I'm not offering it on behalf of reason where I have no editorial say, but as a libertarian with his own interpretation of the decision: Bob Barr receives a fraction of the attention lavished on Obama and McCain. The few magazines that have profiled him did so with condescension. reason is one of very few outlets that takes Barr and his ideas seriously, but because they've been taking him seriously since day one--in print and online--a cover espousing Barr's positions on markets and liberty would have been redundant. The Nov. cover story featured Barr's thoughts outside the confines of the election, and therefore, a simple headline, in my view, was fitting.

In my view, Riggs’s brand of libertarianism is something CP should liberate itself from mas pronto possible. That’s because it’s a shortcut to bankruptcy. Frio/Fuego has no futuro either.
Erik, you deserve a day off, why not take the rest of the week?

"Mas pronto possible"?
That would mean "more quickly possible." Que?

Does it? Can we get a Spanish-speaking third party to verify this?
