    This should be the very last piece of journalism that any one takes seriously from the Washington Post.

    Both them and the NYT have shown their asses when it comes to just being propaganda mouth-pieces.

    We need to re-democratize our culture, and get away from this world of billionaire possession of our cultural expression. They didn’t make it, and its not something they can own if we don’t allow it. We need to stop taking outlets like WP or NYT seriously.

      I’m not really sure what the New York Times has to do with this. WaPo is owned by a billionaire trying to hedge his bets if Trump wins and decides to take vengeance by breaking up Amazon.

      NYT is fully independent.

      I read the times nearly every day. Not sure what you mean by this. Can you expand? I find their reporting on trump to be pretty real. Their interview with John Kelly straight up calling trump a fascist is pretty damning. So…

        I can’t say for certain what they mean, but while their Trump coverage is solid, many people take issue with the way they are covering the Israel-Palestine conflict.

        On another note, while I believe the John Kelly interview should be damning, if you believe it will make any difference you are living in a fantasy world.

      I don’t know why people would pay for the news when they aren’t on your side.

        News are not supposed to take sides, they should present facts regardless of who (dis)likes them

          Do you think that’s what’s happening when you look out at the landscape of news reporting today? When the owner’s interests get in the way of presenting facts I believe it all goes out the window. If it was just about newsworthiness I think you’d have a point.
