The Washinton Times didn't mention the giant log in her eye. They're usually pretty good too.

Doesn't stupid Fox News know that they should be supporting the liberal perspective? Why won't they just follow, damn them.

Wait a minute, isn't Ms. Overholser's resignation "ideologically connected?"

The lefty quits, and Brit wins an award.
It doesn't get much better than this.

Congratulations, Brit!

That is inaccurate and unfair to other media who engage in a quest, perhaps an imperfect quest, for objectivity."

...he practices "ideologically connected journalism."

I suppose she worships factually disconnected journalism as practiced by the NY Times gods and the NPR graven images.

"Geneva Overholser, formerly ombudsman at the Washington Post "

Typical. The liberal newspapers actually believe themselves to be so politically neutral that they usually appoint a flaming liberal to be their ombudsman.

Geneva Overholser

Who, incidentally, is one of the gang that turned the formerly great Des Moines Register into a libs-only local. How she and Michael Gartner can still find work is a mystery to me.
