Daniel Lippman, Reporters' and DC's Little Helper

Submitted by Kas Report on Tue, 12/22/2009 - 17:33

I wish I was this cool when I was growing up!

Must read: A profile of Daniel Lippman, a curious new character on the journalism scene:

The 19-year-old sophomore at George Washington University has become the Washington press corps’ independent fact checker, copy editor and link distributor extraordinaire. […] Lippman mops up after the Beltway’s hacks so consistently that it’s a wonder he hasn’t yet flunked out of college. Scarcely a wanton apostrophe or misspelled name will appear in a story without Lippman’s quickly issuing forth an e-mail.

His beneficiaries include AP writers, HuffPo's Sam Stein, Adam Nagourney, Fallows, and more

Geek for sure but cool… its cool being geeked out these days…
