Milbank To People Criticizing His Obama-Is-Presumtuous WaPo Hitjob Piece: You're Whiners....
http://digbysblog.blogspot.com/2008/08/shut-up-whiners-by-dday-dana-milbank.html

"In a July 31 washingtonpost.com online discussion, Dana Milbank dismissed participants' criticisms of his July 30 column -- a "sketch" of Sen. Barack Obama's "premature presidency" -- as "whines." Indeed, Milbank began the discussion by acknowledging that "some of you have some thoughts you'd like to share about yesterday's Sketch on the premature presidency of Barack Obama," and before taking questions, wrote: "I've decided to approach today's chat as a wine writer would. ... Today, I am inaugurating the Whine Enthusiast, in which I will rate your whines.""

2. Par for the course
This is a paper whose own ombudsman has to defend its editorial board's dishonesty- after they contradict facts published by their own reporters!
