Big news in Pressland. Highly respected Mid-East reporter. I am sure the Post offered her a column at the level of Friedman's.

Wright bails on LAT
Following some weeks of high-level negotiation, Robin Wright, the long-time L.A. Times reporter on international terrorism, has jumped to the Washington Post. Washington bureau chief Doyle McManus announced her departure in a memo to the staff.

After 15 years of brilliant journalism at the Los Angeles Times, Robin Wright has opted for the calmer and less-dramatic life of a beat reporter at The Washington Post.
We are sorry to see her go -- and I say that as one who has had the special privilege of working closely with Robin as a colleague, coauthor, editor and semi-boss during her entire tenure here.

She's had a pretty sweet, mostly hands-off deal at the Times, but apparently wanted more. Even possibly an op-ed column, like Thomas Friedman at the New York Times.
