Yet more proof that blogging is not journalism. Instapundit is all in a dither over reports that Gregg Easterbrook was apparently fired from ESPN after his anti-Semitic column in The New Republic.

In all the many, many links here I see lots of speculation, theories and rumors about why ESPN has done this, as well as outrage that they have done this.

There are complaints that "ESPN owes an explanation, and [Drum]wonders why it hasn't produced one."

Well gee, maybe some of these bloggers might actually, I don't know, get off their butts and call someone at ESPN and ask for a comment? Journalism isn't just sitting around blathering about what you think and providing links to what other people think. It involves, actual, you know, reporting.
