Power player brings his game to my court

Tue, 12 Jun 2007

I've just published a piece of original reporting to the FPC blog that I wanted to point out here: LG Chief of Staff Used State Resources to Whitewash Boss

This is breaking news. A major Republican power-player tried to punk the FPC, anonymously, only to leave a trail that led right back to his office.

If, as Don Piatt tells us, "a man's greatness can be measured by his enemies", then I may have just acquired a new way to gauge my stature.

Update:

Lt. governor was one who edited weblog - Miami Herald

A Web mystery solved: Lt. Gov. Jeff Kottkamp admitted he changed an unflattering entry on a website but says he was just trying to update biographical information. [...]

Read this very humorous take on the situation: Kottkamp Sabered by Jedi. "Lt. Governor Jeff Kottkamp apparently doesn't know a wiki from a wookiee."

Had he been caught deleting info on Wookieepedia, Kottkamp would have had a much easier time of it. Sure, Chewbacca might have pulled Kottkamp's arms off, but the FPC did worse by breaking this story.
