MARC FISHER – After 1,250 Columns, the End – The PostFisher is moving on to an Metro editor position:
There are a million stories in the naked city, someone once said, and I told 1,250 of them here, and another 1,200 on the blog. I heard from readers 250,000 times and I tried to respond to [...]
MARC FISHER – Future of Nats, Ballpark’s Neighborhood Up to Us – The PostI do not understand the headline — how is it up to “us” that the neighborhood around Nationals Park succeeds?

MARC FISHER: A Tale of Two Communities, And of How the Tale Gets Told – The Post
With its rolling lawns and secluded glens, Fort Ward looks like a lovely place to take a walk. Turns out, it’s far more than a park in Alexandria — it’s one history sacrificed to make way for another, [...]

Live blogging this helps expose Pearson for the clown that he is and his unreasonable, if not [...]
MARC FISHER: Free Speech? Not if You Hurt Their Feelings. – The PostThis is just sad. At the Maryland Food Collective, a store in the student union at University of Maryland, students think the right to not be offended is more important than free speech.
Make sure you check out Fisher’s chat too.

Metroblogging DC’s Tom Bridge, told me [...]
Steven Pearlstein, a Post Business columnist thinks Gov. Tim Kaine should sign the transportation bill before him. Metro columnist Marc Fisher disagrees.
I have not made up my mind yet, though I’ll probably e-mail the governor and my local state officials when I do. Neither option is real great, but this is something we [...]
