MORE DETAIL THAN WE NEEDED

Filed at 12:51 pm under by dcobranchi

It must have been a very slow news day in Washington. The WaPo apparently needed to fill up column-inches. How else to explain the following, from an article on the never-ending quest for a new superintendent?

Seventeen search committee members worked into the night Friday without pause, even interviewing one candidate over a catered dinner that included Caesar and tomato salads, side dishes of asparagus and broccoli and a choice of chicken, salmon or roast beef.

Maybe the reporter is bucking for a restaurant critic gig.
