What Newspapers Can Do
Rajiv Chandrasekaran's illuminating, nuanced June 19 story on the Bush administration's costly misadventures in Afghanistan, "U.S. Pursues a New Way to Rebuild in Afghanistan," could be found only in a newspaper with the resources of The Washington Post. When many publications are limiting news to 500 words or less and foreign reports are buried on the back pages, it's welcome to read in-depth coverage that obviously has been researched over several months.
Don't give up this type of reporting. It will always set you apart from the competition whether online or in print.

Picture Puzzle
I'm puzzled. The story of Terry O'Neill's slim victory over Latifa Lyles to become president of the National Organization for Women was illustrated by two photos of O'Neill and none of Lyles ["NOW Voters Narrowly Tap Md. Activist as President," Metro, June 23].
Why, exactly? What ever happened to being fair and balanced in all ways, not just points of view?
