Washington Post, Washington Times, No Difference

The Washington Post seems to more and more be trying to plow the same ground as the Washington Times and Fox News.

Case in point: They hired Bill Kristol and fired Dan Froomkin. They don't have any problem with giving space to the pro-torture advocates, but when it comes to a liberal who has proven to be one of the best-informed critics of first the Bush Administration and now, increasingly, the Obama Administration, they dump him.

I can't say that I have much use for the Washington Post.

UPDATE: Paul Krugman weighs in. I think he's got a point. There is also an argument to be made that you're better off watching Fox News or reading Pravda, for at least you know where they are coming from.
