Pam SpauldingWaPo Heralds 'Chorus' of Gay Bloggers, Ignores Conservative GayPatriot BlogOn the front page of today's Style section, Washington Post staffer Jose Antonio Vargas promised readers a look at the "gay political blogosphere" in "Gay Bloggers' Voices Rise in Chorus of Growing Political Influence."
