We could see a repeat of that. The Washington Post is considering whether or not to put stories of troops killed in Iraq on the front page. Ombusman Michael Gertler argues in favor, saying that readers deserve to know how the consequences of the war hit close to home.

when I see it.  Although the press has been getting much more aggressive in the daily gaggle, with Scotty and at times with Shrub (when he deigns to talk with them), I'm not sure many WaPo journalists would be getting called on regularly, if the paper decided to do that.  Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see them start putting the numbers on the front page on a daily basis (the dead and injured of both the troops and the innocent Iraqis), right above their header.  I'm just not sure they have the guts to do it.
