Coleman v. Powerline
Thomas Lifson accurately sums up and references the mismatch between the Minneapolis newspaper's minions and the principals of the Powerline blog and the rest of the blogosphere . Mismatch is such a sweet term for the winners:

I have no clinical insight to offer, but I do see an analogy to a well-known practice of some of those bent on extinguishing their own lives. Certain people with access to a gun lack the guts to pull the trigger and blow their own brains out. So instead, they pull their gun on a police officer and threaten to kill him. The practice is known as "suicide by cop." I think Coleman has invented "career suicide by blogger."
