Two things:

1) not surprising if you've followed the Outside the Lines stuff. Only question now is whether Briles gets it too -- and IMO he richly deserves the axe as well.

2) more of an inside baseball thing, but how embarrassed is this NYT reporter?

"I wrote an article without mentioning the Number One Most Important Thing in Ken Starr's life right at this moment."

I know we're currently debating the appropriateness of politics on this board, so I'll keep this neutral: for almost all participants in the Clinton impeachment -- save for Bill himself -- their involvement was bound to be both the first line and major subject of their obituary. And, sadly -- for someone like Monica Lewinsky -- it seems something that they would never outlive. Imagine, that Starr would succeed at transforming his legacy: there will definitely be other, worse parts of his obituary now.
