It is requested that a picture or pictures of this person be included in this article to improve its quality.

Note: Wikipedia's non-free content use policy almost never permits the use of non-free images (such as promotional photos, press photos, screenshots, book covers and similar) to merely show what a living person looks like. Efforts should be made to take a free licensed photo during a public appearance, or obtaining a free content release of an existing photo instead.

An appropriate infobox may need to be added to this article, or the current infobox may need to be updated. Please refer to the list of biography infoboxes for further information.

[edit] Another source for unpublishable nickname?

I just read the source backing up the statement, "According to Milbank, the nickname given to him by the president is "not printable in a family publication."

Here's the relevant text from the source: BK: President Bush is famous for giving nicknames to members of the press corps. Do you have a nickname? DM: It’s not printable in a family publication.

Having seen Milbank appear on the Keith Olbermann show several times, he comes across as having a dry sense of humor. Are we certain that what he said in this interview isn't just an exaggeration? Has he repeated this elsewhere? 98.215.54.162 (talk) 00:31, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "A Jewish American political reporter"?

By you that's NPOV? Are you saying that everything the man writes is on the direct orders of his rabbi? I'm going to remove that description because it's completely inappropriate and raises questions about the motivations of the person who created this article.
