Not to be noticed by Howard Kurtz

Those paid salons the Washington Post was caught trying to throw -- that they expressed they were shocked, SHOCKED about. Well, turns out they kind of lied:

Washington Post executive editor Marcus Brauchli says he knew more about the controversial “salons” the paper had planned than previously has been reported, including the fact that they were being billed as “off-the-record” to potential sponsors.

As usual, this will not be noted by Howard Kurtz -- there's discussion of Letterman's sex life to be had.
