Local scribbling Seattle schmucks find themselves hoist by their own petard. Run and hide like little girly-men.
Chicago Boyz posts Tit for Tat
after "the Stranger, a leftist rag in Seattle, Wa. decided it would be funny to write a supposed review of local haunted houses in which the scariest houses where those that had Republican campaign posters in their yards. [h/t Instapundit] Presumably trying to be thorough, they displayed the addresses of the houses prominently in the article.and calls for some turnabout:
I figure that turnabout is fair play, so I did some Internet research and found the address of the paperâs editorial director.
Chicago then asks:
"If a reader in the Seattle area would like to swing by and take pictures, we could post those, you know, just to be thorough."Happy to oblige.

Once the story made it to Instapundit and other pages, the brave Stranger Staffers redirected the link to their brave expose to Drudge and shut down comments on the subject at "The Slog," the Stranger's blog.
Too late though: Copy of the page with addresses blanked is HERE.
Brave, brave new worlders.
