But the criticism that seemed to irk Milbank more than any other was a tough piece from Politico's Dylan Byers, who was also not at the event. Under the headline "Dana Milbank's Heritage disaster," Byers wrote that the columnist "grossly misrepresented" the discussion.

ON THE RECORD: Jan 12, 2014: Dana Milbank (Washington Post) has written an op-ed about New Jersey's Chris Christie titled "New Jersey narcissist." In it he writes: "Narcissism is the dominant theme in American politics today, and the man Christie would succeed in the Oval Office appears to suffer from an acute sense of his own righteousness. But Christie takes worship of self to a whole new level. The governor said he fired Bridget Anne Kelly, the aide at the center of the scandal, “because she lied to me” — not because she ordered up a traffic jam that ensnarled thousands to exact retribution on a political foe. " William Teach (Pirate's Cove) in a critique of Milbanks' article responded: "Love it! “Sure, Obama’s a narcissist, but that Christie guy, wow, massive out of control!” Right. Sure thing, sparky. Has Christie ever done something like make the 50th anniversary of JFK’s death about himself? How about honoring Rosa parks with a picture of himself? How about pictures of himself looking in a mirror? Taking selfies at Mandela’s funeral? Saying that ”those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf”?" Touche!

June 3, 2008: AlterNet: How the Media Abandoned Iraq
Americans might care if they could witness more of the human toll. That's the approach the Washington Post 's Dana Milbank took in an April 24 piece titled, "What the Family Would Let You See, the Pentagon Obstructs." When Lt. Col. Billy Hall was buried in Arlington National Cemetery in April, his family gave the media permission to cover the ceremony -- he is among the highest-ranking officers to be killed in Iraq. But, according to Milbank, the military did everything it could to keep the journalists away, isolating them some 50 yards away behind a yellow rope. The "de facto ban on media at Arlington funerals fits neatly" with White House efforts "to sanitize the war in Iraq," and that, in turn, has helped keep the bloodshed out of the public's mind, Milbank wrote in his Washington Sketch feature. There have been similar complaints over the years about the administration's policy that bans on-base photography of coffins returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. (See Drop Cap, June/July 2004.)

Milbank writes "Washington Sketch" for the Washington Post, an observational column about political theater in the White House, Congress, and elsewhere in the capital. Before coming to the Post as a political writer in 2000, he covered the Clinton White House for The New Republic and Congress for The Wall Street Journal.
