RUMOR - - Wash Post hires Jason LaCanfora's Replacement

He's supposedly starting in mid-July. He said so himself...at least that's what I heard he said.

Don't know much about the guy, wonder what sort of sources he has with the Redskins

I guess the people at the post don't really know who they have or haven't hired. If I were one of them I wouldn't be either (http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/citydesk/2009/06/10/wapo-clearing-the-way-for-layoffs/).

Never read any of his stuff that I can recall but people out there seem to like him.. we'll see?

Thank god this is getting settled. I was really getting worried about who was going to be the next WaPo "insider" for the fans to pile on every day.

JLC's gone?????

I'm glad J.R. got the job. I was hoping he would. He's a likeable guy who seems fair and objective in his writing.

JLC's gone?????

Who was JLC?


How was he ever "inside" anyway?

:laughing-

Nice move by the Post. JR seems like a good enough guy. Of course I remember feeling the same way when Nunyo bolted and they gave the job to JLC. As long as JR sticks to facts and doesn't stir crap up as JLC came to do then he'll be fine. I think he is going to find though that if he thought just doing the day-to-day beat for the Post on the Skins was a challenge then running the show and and putting his name/face/rep on it opens a whole new can of worms. Good luck.
