Washington Post’s Joe Lauria comments on Jason Leopold’s Scoop

It was but the latest installment in the tale of a troubled young reporter with a history of drug addiction whose aggressive disregard for the rules ended up embroiling me in a bizarre escapade — and raised serious questions about journalistic ethics.

We’ve commented earlier on Leopold’s BS story about Karl Rove’s supposed indictment here and elsewhere.
