New Book: Infamous Scribblers, by Eric Burns

Aram Bakshian Jr. reviews Infamous Scribblers by Eric Burns (Opinion Journal, March 8, 2006).

The title of the book is taken from one of George Washington's letters to a friend, in which he admits to being sick of the abuse of the gutter press of his day.
