Their paper, their call
As soon as you agree to let me decide what topics you cover in your blog, you'll get the right to decide what books newspapers will review. It's their call, it's their newspaper? Don't like it, don't buy their newspapers.
Frankly, this whole post was almost unreadably whiny: "why aren't they paying _attention_ to me?" Short answer - they don't have to, and it's not your right to complain, any more than you have a right to complain that someone hasn't bought your book - you have no standing. If you owned stock in WaPo or NYT, and thought it was a bad business decision, you'd have a right to complain.
