Post Taps New Ombudswoman

Whenever we take a long lunch, we seem to end up missing big news. Post Exec Editor Len Downie just announced to the Post staff that Deborah Howell, Newhouse News Service’s D.C. bureau chief, will be succeeding Michael Getler as the paper’s ombudsman (er, ombudswoman now, we guess).

Downie wrote:

Deborah Howell knows newsroom and newspapers and all that they must be to their readers and staffers. She has directed coverage of all types of news–local, national and international.
