Stephen, your comment was astute. I wrote in an earlier posting that I contacted the Washington Post about "our" story and asked for someone to investigate the deeper story of what lies beneath firing Marc. The reaction was tepid at best which only increased my paranoia. The person I was told to contact was Ms. Newhall at the Post. She said she would circulate the tip around the other newsdesks in case another reporter might think it interesting.. But I have heard nothing. I was hoping that others would also email her. This feels like "The China Syndrome" about media and I am unnerved by the implications.
