I think it is pretty funny that the compost can run an article about scandal in the press corps, and it NOT be about CNN's news executive falsely accusing our troops of deliberately murdering journalists in Iraq. The press corps is deliberately working with the enemies of both America and freedom. THAT is a scandal in the press corps.

And look at the WPost's recent record, from DrudgeReport:

WHITE HOUSE BLASTS WASHINGTON POST -- AGAIN
Wed Feb 09 2005 17:25:59 ET

For the second time in less than a week, the White House has issued a rare public demand for The WASHINGTON POST to correct high impact stories about the cost of President Bush's domestic initiatives. The POST caved last Thursday after the White House savaged reporter Jonathan Weisman's article on Social Security (?Benefit Cuts Would Offset Contributions?). Not only did the POST run a correction, but Weisman wrote an entire story correcting his earlier account.

The bad blood boiled over again today when the POST led its editions with a story about Medicare costs by Ceci Connolly and Mike Allen (?Medicare Drug Benefit May Cost $1.2 Trillion?). The White House issued a scathing attack on the story, coupled with a demand for a fresh correction. A second correction would be a major journalistic embarrassment for the POST, which the White House argues is providing ammunition to Democrats for use in baseless attacks against the president.
