Eric Alterman has an acolyte

I've spent too much time this evening attempting to educate Tom Traubert over at Poynter.org's Romenesko's Media Blog. Mr. Traubert is part of the delusional left that is convinced that if you're not Keith Olbermann, then you're a right-winger. Follow the link for the entire exchange, but I wanted to highlight this bit of insanity:

Traubert: Washington Post fields a stable full of conservatives and just exchanged its single liberal columnist, Froomkin, for another, Ezra Klein.

Hoy: You dishonestly state that the Washington Post has only one liberal writer. Looking at the paper's list of opinion writers I find at least the following liberals: David Broder, Richard Cohen, E.J. Dionne, Colbert King, Michael Kinsley, Sebastian Mallaby, Ruth Marcus, Harold Meyerson, Eugene Robinson and Fareed Zakaria.

I probably didn't list all of the Post's liberal writers -- these were just the ones that jumped out at me.

Mr. Traubert's got issues. There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.
