Wash. Post Beck beat: Paper follows Fox host's lead in tying SEIU to ACORN

SUMMARY: On the heels of Washington Post ombudsman Andrew Alexander's September 20 suggestion that the paper "should pay attention" to Fox News, the Post published an October 6 article headlined, "Some Criticize SEIU for Its ACORN Connections." In echoing Glenn Beck's fixation with "connections" between ACORN and SEIU, the Post gave no indication why "connections" between the two organizations would be inappropriate -- or in any way newsworthy.
