Does the WAPO have a press pass to the White House? If yes, pull it until a front page apology is issued and the author of the "story" is fired. But demanding an apology is a good first step, finally some fight-back against the propaganda machines that call themselves media outlets.
Here in Maryland Gov. Bob Ehrlich banned two Baltimore Sun reporters from access to anyone in his administration. These reporters were so one-sided and biased it was comedic. The Sun sued and lost. One of the reporters/columnists Michael Olesker has since resigned from the paper having finally been caught plagerizing.If Ehrlich can deny access to the media then Bush can too.
