Per the WaPo website, Dino Grandoni has an "MA in science journalism", whatever that entails.
I am guessing the curriculum is a series of seminars like this:
SC 201- Intro to cutting and pasting government press releases
SC 230- Stats are for losers
SC 231- Stat graphing is all about axis manipulation
SC 232- Stat time series, how to make the window smaller, for your pleasure
SC 275- Sources are not to be questioned
SC 286- Fieldwork at the EPA, a primer on how to sleep under your desk.
