REAL brawl breaks out in Washington Post newsroom! (Yes!)

Holy cow!!! -- more proof that print journalists are just a surly bunch of self-important misfits ready for a fight anytime, anywhere!

The "story" has also been covered by City Paper, Politico and The Washingtonian ... here's Politico's version ...
