The Washington Post Opinion Section Is a Sad, Toxic Wasteland

Dan Froomkin

This is truer than taxes, and nothing is truer than them.

Even with the death of their toxic OP/ED editor Fred Hiatt, the Post opinion section remains horrible.

It is routine for front page stories to contradict the facts claimed in the opinion pieces.  It appears that they have taken the Daniel Patrick Moynihan adage, "You are entitled to your opinion. But you are not entitled to your own facts," and the Post editors have added, "Unless it's published on the Washington Post editorial page."

Read the rest, including his take-down of the the most egregious writers, is well worth the read.
