This is a perfect example of how trying to stay "neutral" in journalism only legitimizes fringe beliefs and conspiratorial thinking. By framing astrology as something that is debatable, by staking a neutral stance, the Washington Post is giving Altman and other grifters legitimacy that they do not deserve.
