Former Washington Post contract stringer and current Boston University journalism professor Chris Daly isn't the first former staffer to be trashed by WaPo executive editor Len Downie. (Downie suggested Daly was bitter at a current WaPo staffer because Daly had failed to earn a similar role for himself.) But hey, Downie said much the same about New Yorker staffer Jeffrey Goldberg in a 2005 dust-up over diversity hiring! "I'm sorry that someone who long ago failed to make the grade here would attack our diversity efforts," Downie wrote then. Sheesh, dude!

On July 11, the Washington Post editorial editor treats readers to an opinion column, "Aggression Under False Pretenses,"by Ismail Haniyeh. Haniyeh is a leader of Hamas (Islamic Resistance Movement) in the Gaza Strip. Hamas is listed as a terrorist organization by the United States, Israel, the European Union, Canada, Australia and other countries. Haniyeh is ... following January's victory by Hamas in the Palestinian legislative elections, prime minister of the Palestinian Authority. But by reading the column, one would not know that Hamas is a terrorist organization, responsible for the murders of hundreds of Israelis and others, or that Haniyeh is a member, let alone a leader. The Post Op-Ed identifies him only as the PA's prime minister.
