DEEPER THAN DEEP, YOUR THROAT

Will is absolutely gleeful over yet another conservative hypocrite hoisted on his own petard:

Remember David Smith and his Sinclair Broadcast Group? You know, the company with 51 far-flung TV stations, who wouldn't show the "Nightline" honoring the war dead and who tried to get the anti-John Kerry documentary on the air just days before the election. Some of us had a good time with Smith's 1996 bust after an encounter-on-wheels with a prostitute in a seedy district of Baltimore.

Now it gets better (or worse). A former partner is giving Rolling Stone -- in this excellent new article by Eric Klinenberg about the bizarro right-wing world of Sinclair -- new details about Sinclair CEO Smith's start in the world of business, which was ...copying porno films! And the first one was "Deep Throat."

In a classic case of life imitating "art," you'll recall Mr. Smith was arrested in Baltimore for getting head from a hooker in his company Mercedes.
