Does the Washington Post Cover People of Faith Fairly - A Week of Controversy

Quite a big controversy over at the Washington Post where a unnamed reporter involved in an exchange with a reader was quite blunt with what he thought about some religious beliefs as to gay marriage.

Get Religion has done a good job covering this with assorted links and comments. See WPost: Yes, we fear and loathe religious traditionalists  for the article that set this all off.

Get Religion also wonders about the ethics of allowing this reporter to be unnamed. Guess which WPost reporter refuses to cover you fairly . As is mentioned it does seem a tad unfair that everyone is placing a guessing game as to the person. On the flip side at least we have a very vivid example of how some think on this matter . They also give some more comment from other people here at Bill Keller, et al, openly confess that “error has no rights”

After reading these articles I do wonder the pressure that some newspaper folks of Faith might feel at the office. It seems hard to avoid the topics that are at dispute , but I do wonder about how they might navigate the work place at times.
