Congresswomen: Whores. Journos: Thieves
Thursday, February 1st, 2007
Last night, we learned that Rep. Loretta Sanchez quit the Congressional House Caucus because its chair called her a whore. This evening, an operative forwarded us this email from The Politico’s talented Josie Hearn to a number of her collegues.

Hi all,
If you are working on a story about Loretta Sanchez and the CHC, please credit Politico.com for breaking the story.
Below I am including stories I have written over the past year on the CHC rift. They may be of use to you.
Thanks,
Josephine Hearn
Unfortunately, one of the recipients had already kinda broken the story too. Full, cranky email exchange, after the jump.
