Now a Style section piece about the so-called new Brat Pack of young Washington, D.C., politics bloggers digs the hole a little deeper. All the bloggers interviewed in the piece were young men; a female politics blogger was only mentioned when she was referred to as someone's fiancée. Apparently to be taken seriously an up-and-coming policy wonk blogger challenging the crusty ol' print media establishment you have to have a penis hanging between your legs.
