Washington Post BACKS DOWN to US

So many people wrote to the Washington Post complaining about their biased coverage of the September 15 Mass March on Washington that they ran a large photo showing the huge size of the demonstration, accompanied by the following letters that criticized their coverage. The coverage can be seen in today’s Washington Post, page A15. It is really worth getting a hard copy of the paper.
Saturday, September 22, 2007; Page A15

Demonstrators rally near the U.S. Capitol during the antiwar march Sept. 15.
You're Wrong About the War, and About the Rally, Too
Why would The Post misrepresent the number of antiwar, anti-administration protesters here in Washington on Sept. 15? The Associated Press said that organizers estimated that more than 100,000 people attended the rally and march, and while that couldn't be confirmed, "there appeared to be tens of thousands of people in attendance." Columnist Marc Fisher, however, put the tally at "the several thousand people who devoted their Saturday to the constitutionally sacred act of sounding off in their nation's capital" ["Online Fervor Over the Iraq War Hits the Streets With a Big Thud," Metro, Sept. 16]. A Post story used a law enforcement estimate of "closer to 10,000."
Given that he interviewed participants, Fisher apparently deigned to attend the demonstration, but he didn't seem to have attended the same event I participated in. I talked to many people, friends and strangers alike, and every one of them was surprised and pleased by the large number of participants.

I object to your Sept. 16 headline "Dueling Demonstrations," in the A section. The antiwar rally was organized first; the other was a much smaller rally organized in response to it.
You made no mention of the relative turnout for the two rallies. I was at Lafayette Square, where a dedicated crowd of thousands assembled. On C-SPAN, there appeared to be about a thousand at the other rally. Should you have mentioned that thousands more were at the antiwar rally?
-- Charles Eisenhauer Rockville


I'm mystified that your editorials continue to support President Bush's policy of staying in Iraq.
In describing the recent testimony by Gen. David H. Petraeus to Congress ["A Long View," editorial, Sept. 11], The Post admitted that the surge has failed to meet a primary objective of fostering political reconciliation, yet only asked rhetorically: "Should the missions of American forces remain unchanged?" This was followed by: "That's a question that the president must answer." You also have called the president's policy "the least bad plan" [editorial, Sept. 14].
I'm bewildered that you continue to support staying in this war when The Post, of all media organizations, has been the source of so much information that causes me to oppose Bush's escalation and "stay the course" policy.
The Post has unveiled a mountain of information on Iraq showing the futility of American military muscle. You have detailed the enormous human and financial cost of the war and repeatedly exposed this president for tampering with the truth. The Post has been the source of blistering war commentaries from Eugene Robinson, Richard Cohen, David Ignatius, E.J. Dionne Jr., Colbert I. King, George F. Will and Jim Hoagland.
As an avid Post reader, I can only wonder whether the editorial board is reading its own newspaper.

Personally, I noted that the papers continually mentioned a 'few thousand' people marching to the anti-war rally. Yep. There was THAT. A few thousand who signed up to 'die-in' in front of the capitol. So they were part of it.

BUT, the other part was the THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of others who participated in the anti-war, impeachment rally but DID NOT attend the die-in. Interesting and 'pull the wool' spin by the newsfolks ala bushco times.

Once Upon a Time

I drove a fairly nice Dodge Caravan. It was nothing special --- it was just the vehicle that transported me and mine from point a to point b.

Well, once upon a time this biker boy came along on I 275 and smashed me in the rear-end. Right out there in front of god and everyone. Me? I'm all innocent. I'm thinking ... is this guy DRUNK??? Because a three year old driving could have made the stop ... it was easy not sharp.

Anyhoooooooo, I didn't even really plan to do anything about it so I continued on my merry way ... it was raining. Well, this sneaky asshole (what a MAN!!) gets to the next exit --- there by 21st st ybor city and sneaks off the interstate. I kinda laught to myself. There was SO MUCH traffic.

It was almost but not quite 10 days later when someone walked up to me and pressed his name and license plate number in to my hand. Said, "here's the hit and run" from the other day on the interstate.

My intel is a whole lot better than yours, eh?

Now, how long have I known this and seemingly done nothing about it??

Wow. A long time. I rarely take that particular route so I remember it very distinctly ...

You could not really tell the car had been hit, yknow?? BUT, ever after that it leaked there and, of course, had to go ... mildew and such.

IF memory serves that was also the car they knocked the airconditioning hose loose from during all their tampering .... and the brakes.

Well ... anyway .... I think everyone out there should think REAL REAL REAL hard who their friends are and when you think you're ready ... make it a good one. Try to make it LAST.

In the end, things will still come out the same way.

Only, you worked very very hard to create an enemy. You haven't managed to accomplish that or your various and sundry other goals.

I see you and ... I KNOW how hard you worked to get my attention. I'm so easy going and good natured and kind I completely overlooked all of that. i even overlooked your bro rear-ending my car. And, I had no idea who he was at the time, thought he was a total stranger.

But, there's folks out there won't have them ignored.

And, they talk to me.

How's that working out for you?

What I'm saying is -- make it count. Because when you open that door --- YOU WILL DEAL with what comes through it.

And, you won't like it.

But, that's your problem.

Next time maybe you'll see a decent person who understand communication and participate. (and herein may lie the problem, I guess)

Sending thugs to my door was really stupid.

From there and from the day on I275 it's been a virtual downhill cascade of same ...

This won't end well but I won't be the one paying.

I want you to be aware of that ..... and this is the last time I'm saying so.

Your intel is bad. You even murdered the wrong person.

Do you REALLY think that a sweet, beautiful, gentle intelligent, peaceful girl like myself passed through this world and made no allies?

Okay.

We'll see about that.

I haven't forgotten that you murdered the wrong person. In fact, you murdered A LOT of the wrong people. And ---- well, therein lies a problem. But not for me.
