This is just a quick link to follow -- an "aside." These are links to interesting things that, for one reason or another, I didn't place into a full posting. Click the link to visit the full article. Go to the blog index for a regular listing of posts.

AIM: Post Reporter Dana Priest's Troubling Connections - '...Dana Priest should not be allowed to hide behind the tattered veil of "anonymous sources." The history of journalism is filled with Pulitzer Prize winners who have betrayed the public trust in favor of their own twisted agendas. Soviet apologist Walter Duranty of the New York Times, who covered up Stalin's crimes, is one example. The Post's Janet Cooke, who wrote a phony story about a child heroin addict, was another. Priest's Pulitzer Prize-winning story not only lacks evidence, it looks like a carefully designed and planted effort to sabotage the war on terror, a move that has put Americans at increased risk of terrorist attack. The Post has a lot to answer for at its annual meeting on May 11.'
