Shouldn't WaPo Disclose Writer as Running for Congress?

Bill Thomas with his wife, Irina

WaPo‘s Sunday Magazine featured a story by Bill Thomas. The headline is: “The sounds and the fury — down home with Ole Miss, beauty queens and literary greatness in Oxford, Mississippi”

Thomas’s bio at the end of his story reads:
Bill Thomas, an author and journalist, is a regular contributor to the Magazine. His last story was on South African bush pilots. He can be reached at wpmagazine@washpost.com.

What the bio does not say is that he is the same “Bill Thomas” who is a Republican running for Congress in Maryland’s 8th District.
