Not so shocking: WaPo Columnist admits voting for Obama


In a not so shocking revelation, Washington Post reporter and former deputy national editor, Ruth Marcus, admitted she voted for Barack Obama. Confession is supposed to be good for the soul.
I admire President Obama. I like President Obama. I voted for President Obama.


From NewsBusters:
Hardly shocking news, but it's always good to note for the record whenever a mainstream media journalist admits – or boasts – of voting for the more liberal presidential candidate. The Nobel Peace Prize going to President Barack Obama prompted such an admission from long-time Washington Post reporter Ruth Marcus, the paper's deputy national editor from 1999 through 2002 (bio) and now a columnist. In an opinion piece in the Saturday Post, Marcus called the selection “ridiculous -- embarrassing, even.” Then she offered up what gives her the credibility to make such a judgment:

I admire President Obama. I like President Obama. I voted for President Obama.

When will the other 95% of the mainstream media that voted for Obama make the same confession?
