Ombudsperson Deb Howell of the Washington Post admits that her paper was in the tank for President-elect Obama:

Obama deserved tougher scrutiny than he got, especially of his undergraduate years, his start in Chicago and his relationship with Antoin “Tony” Rezko, who was convicted this year of influence-peddling in Chicago. The Post did nothing on Obama’s acknowledged drug use as a teenager.

One gaping hole in coverage involved Joe Biden, Obama’s running mate. When Gov. Sarah Palin was nominated for vice president, reporters were booking the next flight to Alaska. Some readers thought The Post went over Palin with a fine-tooth comb and neglected Biden. They are right; it was a serious omission.

That’s been reported around the blogosphere as the Post admitting its bias. It is no such thing, as Deb Howell does not speak for the WashPost. She is the ombudsperson. And she gets points for noticing the obvious.
