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.
