Stephanie Mencimer, wife of Washington City Paper editor Erik Wemple, is one of the fresh faces joining Mother Jones’ new DC outlet. She’s written for a variety of DC publications over the years, but perhaps became most famous when a local blogger detailed her alleged slinging of doggy doo during a dispute with owners of a pet spa near her Logan Circle home (which resulted in her arrest). Go ahead, make your jokes now: She’s going to fit right in at MJ, right?
Interestingly, the anonymous blogger, “Circumlocutor,” who originally shed light on the poopy incident has since removed all of his original posts about the situation. The City Paper for some odd reason had investigated the blogger after the incident, and it’s believed by many media insiders that someone associated with the paper threatened to out him if he continued with his reporting. Scary! Lesson here: Don’t cross Wemple or Mencimer, if you know what’s good for you, kids.

Fresh faces? That’s a collection of ugly dinosaurs if I’ve ever seen one!
Do you think Mother Jones knows?
Mother ALWAYS knows!!!
Whoops. I set you up good for that one, Sassy!!! I’m only reading the Weekly Standard from now on as punishment.
And I’m only going to read the Weekly Reeder as my punishment!
Goodness, Sassy needs to learn how to spell!
I was going to point that out, but I thought better than to distract from Mencimer’s shit.
I was very disappointed when Stephanie did that. Very disappointed.
I wonder if Wemple and Mencimer blackmailed him into taking the posts down. Isn’t that what Wemple’s friend, Pat Gav, does?
Pat Gav does blackmail, no doubt, but Wemple isn’t close with him, as far as I know. If Wemple blackmailed someone, it would be a scoop fit not for the city paper, but for WaPo, indeed.
Isn’t ANYONE tired of noteworthy (ha) bloggers being attacked by hack media types and worthless nobodies.
