Reporting to the Chewbacca Controversy

Yes, the Washington Post devoted 571 words today to examining the intricacies of Sen. Jim Inhofe's Chewbacca Defense.

The article discusses how Sen. Inhofe is very terribly, awfully, really concerned about the peer review process. And how many of those 571 words are spent discussing how many times Inhofe has addressed conferences entirely devoted to pushing non-peer-reviewed science? Come on, no time for that, there's a controversy to report to!
