Krauthammer Versus the Post

http://www.futureofcapitalism.com/2011/07/krauthammer-versus-the-post

Charles Krauthammer, a Washington Post columnist syndicated by the Washington Post writers group, takes aim at his own newspaper's news coverage:

A pliant press swallows the White House story line: the great compromiser ("clearly exasperated," sympathized a Post news story) being stymied by Republican "intransigence" (the noun actually used in another front-page Post news story to describe the Republican position on taxes).

I emailed Lori Montgomery, the journalist whose byline is atop both the articles criticized by Dr. Krauthammer, to see if she had any response to the criticism, and she emailed back a one-word reply: "No."
