Reading is hard. Especially when you’re a liberal who’s hell-bent on smearing an articulate, unapologetic conservative. When Clara Jeffery saw this headline:
She tweeted out to her followers that Adam Baldwin is a tax delinquent. Never mind that Adam and Stephen are not, in fact, the same person, much less related. She had garbage to spew and, darn it, she wasn’t about to let facts get in the way! Or let them stop her from calling him a “psuedo-celebrity [sic] sexist gun troll”:

Really, Clara?

No dice. She eventually deleted her tweet, but she didn’t apologize for her lies — or her idiocy. In fact, she doubled down on the sliminess:
My apologies to Stephen Baldwin, who plead guilty to tax evasion http://t.co/vgw2zUsYi6, is not troll @adamsbalwin.

Pathetic. Then again, what else could you expect from a lefty journo-tool like Jeffery?
@adamsbaldwin @ClaraJeffery @MotherJones Gee, this doesn't perpetuate the stereotype that liberals have no personal accountability. Nope!

@ClaraJeffery Wow, your lack of ethics just astounds me. I guess moral high ground only applies to people who agree w you? @adamsbaldwin

No kidding. Baldwin rightfully gave Jeffery the business:

What a nasty piece of work.

Update:
Ace points out Jeffery’s — and the Left’s — stunning hypocrisy when it comes to journalistic integrity:
@adamsbaldwin @michellemalkin They're gleeful if anyone on the right errs… when they do, they're so very forgiving of themselves
— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) March 11, 2013
@adamsbaldwin @michellemalkin it's an understandable error, "Steven" is so close to "Adam"
— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) March 11, 2013
@adamsbaldwin @michellemalkin I mean they're both iambs. Virtually indistinguishable.
— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) March 11, 2013
@adamsbaldwin @michellemalkin or trochys. Or whatever. I don't know what I'm talking about.
— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) March 11, 2013
agree or disagree, @ClaraJeffery: Intellectually honest people admit their errors and do not seek to cover them up.
— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) March 11, 2013
Evidently, intellectual honesty just isn’t all that important to Jeffery.

Update:
Jeffery has tweeted another faux-pology:
Yes, @adamsbaldwin this is a reason I consider you a troll. http://t.co/SwWYFFaB3w I do again apologize for confusing you & brother re taxes
— Clara Jeffery (@ClaraJeffery) March 11, 2013
She feels she’s earned the right to be outraged because of this:
Thing is, Baldwin never called her that.

A bit of background on that meme here.
@adamsbaldwin @DavidLimbaugh @michellemalkin @ClaraJeffery i don't see that as calling her a c**t. I assume you don't either.
— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) March 11, 2013
Oh well. Jeffery’s got no time for the pesky truth.
@adamsbaldwin @DavidLimbaugh @michellemalkin @ClaraJeffery A lot of people consider it the highlight of their day to be Offended.
— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) March 11, 2013
Leftist tools like Jeffery live for it.
