Shocked. Completely, 100% shocked.

No, really - we all bought the "my twitter was hacked" story.

Politicians are all pretty dumb, but at least they usually have a sense of self preservation. This guy lacks even that.

Am I the only one who knows how to pronounce this guy's name correctly?

Weiner: long "i" sound
Wiener: long "e" sound

I thought he was on the record saying he pronounces it with an 'ee.'

I could be wrong. I heard that 2nd hand.

He's an idiot, then. Who WANTS to be called "weener?"

Looks like journalists get PISSED when they get called out for being shills.

msn.com had a lot of fun with this story yesterday. All day long one of their top headlines under "News" was "GOP leader wants Weiner out".

I chuckled.

I'm waiting for both Steny Hoyer and Kevin McCarthy to insist that he resign. Then the headline can be

Well, I get about 99% of my news from reading, but I'm in a doctors office, and they just said "weener" on CNN

I think it refutes your point. Ostensibly the media knows after this much time.

Jon Stewart says it with the long e sound, and whatever else you might say about him he's usually pretty good about getting that sort of thing right.
