Dolinar, Thanks for that post. One of the best written and most insightful I've read on SI in a while. As a somewhat typical product of the American education system, the Donhoff story is one that I was unfamiliar with. Your comment on the status of die ZEIT is appreciated. I'll be paying more attention in the future. With the help of Babelfish, perhaps I'll even learn the rudiments of the language. Re: Comparing her to K. Graham would leave much of her moral force and influence in germany after 45 unaccounted for. Interesting comparison. Very helpful for me to put this in perspective. Unfortunately for the U.S., the Washington Post is reverting to the sort of middle of the road non-controversial newspaper that it was under Katherine Graham's husband's reign prior to his suicide. The days of hard-hitting investigative reportage like the Woodward-Bernstein expose of the Nixon administration is now a mere memory. As an assistant managing editor, Bob Woodward has traded access for credibility and integrity. He's a mere shadow of the investigative reporter he was, a mandarin for the power elite. If there is one newspaper that has the will and the ability to break the Bush Administration's abusive grip on power, it is the New York Times and not the Post. All the best, Ray
