Little Bobby Fisk
Gabriel Syme (London)  Blogging & Bloggers

A true story about Little Bobby Fisk that deserves extensive spreading across the blogosphere.

Many years ago, in the mists of pre-history, or as they say here in Australia, back when the blacks were bad, a little boy called Robert Fisk thought he'd become a journalist and tell the truth to the world. You and I know that never happened, and time is running out for him to repent his sins. To show that he's always been an arrogant, self-opinionated prick, I present the following - Robert Fisk and the Magic Roadblock.

Full story here, thanks to Tom Paine of Silent Running.

"Having failed the old attitude test..."

Interesting, that's almost exactly what an American cop would say in a similar situation.
