I'd like to see Broder make an attempt to respond to the overall sentiment in his Comments section. Just once I'd like to see him give it a whirl to address those comments, the broad vast majority of them, that are admittedly not terribly flattering but expose his pieces as nothing but GOP tripe in disguise.
Honestly, besides the other lazy investigative journalists who rely on his crap as gospel, who in their right minds listen to this man anymore? Then again, comments and overall sentiment to Hiatt's neoconservative cheerleading hack pieces are no different, yet that doesn't seem to make much of a difference either. And then you have Deborah Howell, the Ombudsman who's "charged with representing the interests of the public by investigating and addressing complaints reported by individual citizens" (Wikipedia), but apparently makes up her own job description as an incessant cheerleader of her own paper and writers at all turns:

And yet we all scratch our collective heads with our dear Howell as we wonder why the subscription numbers continue to tank. Hmmm, I just can't put my finger on the problem, can you, Deb?
