To the Washington Post Re Dana Milbank

To the Editor:

Re: Memos, 'Wing Nuts' and 'Hit Lists' by Michael Getler, June 19

On behalf of more than 300,000 supporters of Democrats.com, I write to
express my outrage over Dana Milbank's libelous charge that our "followers
have long been harassing this and other reporters and their families with
hateful, obscene and sometimes anti-Semitic speech."

Democrats.com strictly prohibits personal attacks and takes immediate
action against anyone who violates this rule.

Mr. Milbank never documented any personal attacks from Democrats.com
supporters, so I am appalled that you published the allegation as though
it were factual, and did not ask me for a response to this despicable
charge.

I therefore request an apology from the Washington Post.

Sincerely,

Bob Fertik

President
