Yesterday, 68 year-old Washington Post editor Henry Allen (pictured!) hauled off and popped staff writer Manuel Roig-Franzia right in his grill , like BLAM! The Washington City Paper now has all the details, and we are prepared to make a ruling. Erik Wemple reports that Allen and Roig-Franzia had been beefing for days before the incident, ever since Henry questioned one of Manuel’s stories and Manuel called him a “dick.” Then, last Friday, Manuel allegedly “reached across the table and grabbed Allen’s notepad, tearing a page from it.” Cruising for a bruising, Manuel. Selling woof tickets.
