When are we going to demand that the Washington Post use On Record sources?

At one time newspapers would not print news unless it was from confirmed sources. Now, the WaPo not only uses anonymous sources but literally none of their sources are confirmed. Something has to be done to prohibit them from using anonymous sources and creating fake news. We have to get accountability back into the media business!

We can only pray that the whole WaPo building is vaporized by a Russian nuke. That's how bad we hate progs and international globalists. Enough to suffer the glowing loss of nuclear destruction in parts of our country...a small price to pay to start over and rid the country of the progressive globalist traitors.

Ironic this is coming from the same teabagger morons who cried for 8 years about Obama's phony birth certificate.

Who reads the WashCompost anyway? It's worse than the supermarket tabloids. Nothing but lies and propaganda. Pravda has more credibility and is less anti-American than the Post.

This is entirely correct, however, cancelling subscriptions is not enough. This is a political propaganda machine and needs to be shut down.

They used anonymous sources in the Watergate reporting. Iran Contra too.

The Post does a great job of giving its three readers the leftwing view of yesterday's news.

There are three specific news reports within the past week in which their reporting was shot down as being totally wrong. THIS IS WHERE THE TERM FAKE NEWS CAME FROM!

I get it Sunday-only mainly for the comics, crossword puzzles, and coupons.

God help you if you need support. Just about everyone I talked to while trying to get my subscription fixed was from (and likely in) India.

You should know that Bozo Bezos wasn't going to hire American.

A batting average of .250 in the newspaper business is a good basis for professional malpractice.
