NR’s Peter Robinson is delighted that his bleg for information about why Michelangelo sculpted a Moses with horns growing from his head garnered replies from 225 people. He gushes:

Readers of this happy Corner, youâ??ve done it, providing yours truly with the first really satisfying explanation for the horns on Moses that Iâ??ve ever encounteredâ??while proving that the NRO audience is not only the most rollicking but also the most erudite on earth.

Pretty impressive indeed. Except that the source for that satisfying explanation Robinson finally found after so much tireless searching is also the first Google result for “Michelangelo Moses horns.” I know the awesome power of being able to dispatch hundreds of conservative readers to do your research must be hard to resist, but shouldn’t a journalist learn how to, y’know, punch his queries into a search engine first?
