Levin eviscerated Barnicle last night.
Please tell me that you mean that literally. When Barnicle was fired by the Globe, Howie Carr trumpeted that a boil on the rear of Boston journalism had been lanced. Barnicle was an obvious fabulist for a long time, but none of his editors at the lamestream Globe did the all important gate keeping function of actually, you know, even worrying if his stories were in the least plausible, let alone even, what's the word I'm searching for? Oh, yeah, like you know, "true". He passed off barstool ancedotes as "reporting". Just like that other enormous phony, Jimmy Breslin.
Did he mention that Barnicle got fired from the Boston Globe for making up socilaist sob stories? Fake victims and all!
