elfsBen Stein was fired from the New York Times!
Yay! If only they'd fired him for being the utterly dishonest prick he was as frontman for the execrable pro-Intelligent Design movie, Expelled. But no, the NY Times apparently decided that his being pitchman for a "free credit report" product that turned into a $30/month subscription when you pressed the "Yes" button at the website (hmm, reminds me why I didn't ask for an offer from ${ETHICS_VIOLATION}) was too much for even them to swallow.
I'll take my good news any way I can.
On a similar note, PZ Meyers and a gaggle of biologists and other geeky science types visited the Creationism Museum today. They're tweeting right now, and write-ups tomorrow. This ought to be fun.
