Steve, are you referring to the Deborah Howell (WaPo ombudsman-person) debacle? 😀 I commented at PressThink over that a bit, and was linked to at other blogs, such as Skippy’s (*sigh* I really miss that blog! Was a weblog award finalist from 2003 to 2008 and even got a 2nd place!) 😉

Damn! Too many memories… 🙁
