As a follow-up to that story, I’d like to mention a critique of the WaPo piece that Jamison Foser posted yesterday on the Media Matters blog (h/t John Aravosis at Americablog). Foser’s careful analysis of what the WaPo article left out when it analyzed NOM’s activities is enlightening.
As he notes, it’s interesting to ask how (and why) this fawning hagiography (his words) of a group with a less than hagiographical track record made its way into a mainstream media publication like Washington Post.
