Having apparently decided that pageview count is more important than credibility, the Journal editorial staff is back for more. Watch as editorial board member and cyclist-hater Dorothy Rabinowitz, buoyed by a star turn on the “The Daily Show,” practically mugs for the camera while hurling one wild and demonstrably false claim after another. “Pathological” is the word that comes to mind.
